humectation/ moistening

These are the terms you find in Garzanti Diz.
As for "humectation" I have some doubts about how versatile a word that really is. I know it was used by Bacon in a totally different context....
Probably moistening is a better word.
My seconf ref. is a compost dictionary, that may be of help further down in the document.
