A water supply and kneading system for green sand, including: a weighing hopper that stores green sand that has been weighed; a kneading machine that kneads the green sand and water; a sand loading means for releasing the green sand in the weighing hopper into the kneading machine, or shutting off the release; a water supply device that supplies water to the green sand in the kneading machine; a moisture sensor that includes a pair of electrodes and measures the moisture content of the green sand stored in the weighing hopper by measuring an electric potential difference between the electrodes; and a kneading control device that controls the amount of water supplied by the water supply device and controls the sand loading means on the basis of the output of the moisture sensor.
