The study of soil hydrological characteristics is expensive and time-consuming due to its exercises drilling, test pit, and even trenching. The electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) technique is known as one of the viable methods for determining soil resistivity as a proxy for soil water content. The research has been done in three resistivity lines at the sloping agroforestry land system in West Java province-Indonesia. Soil resistivity value in the Pangalengan line transect ranges from 4.3-2500 Ω, Mandalahaji line transect ranges from 23-288 Ω, and Kiara Payung line transect ranges from 24-500 Ω. Soil resistivity under the agroforestry land system was higher than non-agroforestry land. Soil resistivity is firmly related to the soil water content with an inverse pattern. The use of woody tree species as a water absorber in the agroforestry farming system was the potential to prevents rapid soil saturation and maintain the stability of the steep area. In the steep area, the saturated condition decreases soil shear strength and increases the load on the upper slope so that it triggers soil mass movement.
