Waterlogging is the condition in which the soil is saturated with water. It refers to such a situation where the plant roots get insufficient oxygen to respire sue to an accumulation of excessive moisture.  

Explanation:

  • An increase in the percolation rate as a result of inadequate land runoff ultimately raises the water table. Sometimes seepage from canals also increases the underground reservoir level however few a time underlying subsoil does not permit sufficient outlet of moisture.
  • Excessive moisture content in the root zone prevents proper nutrition percolation towards the plant as this creates anaerobic conditions thus retarding crop quality.
  • It also minimizes oxygen availability to the crops by supporting the growth of water-loving wild plants. This condition tends to accumulate harmful salts and delaying the maturity time of crops.
