FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO THE WATERLOGGING ISSUE IN HARYANA

Abstract

Water logging typically refers to a condition where the land surface becomes inundated with water due to inadequate drainage. However, in the context of agricultural science, the definition of water logging varies. 1. Fully waterlogged area: This is characterized by a water table depth of 0 to 1 meter from the surface. 2. Waterlogged area: This refers to a water table depth ranging from 1 to 2 meters. 3. Potential waterlogged area: This is defined as having a water table depth between 2 to 3 meters. Keywords: Waterlogging, water table, agriculture, drainage, potential.
