What is the solution to the problem of undesirable water loss ?
Undesirable water loss occurs when water is lost by runoff 2 without ever entering the soil or percolating 2 deep into the soil profile beyond the rooting depth of plants growing in the soil. This is water that never enters or is used by plants. Adding irrigation 1 water too rapidly or compacting the soil increases runoff. Adding irrigation water in excess of the actual requirements of the plants growing in the soil results in the excess simply percolating downward because the plants cannot use it.
