For the financial term, see
watered stock. Waterlogging is a verbal noun meaning the saturation of such as ground or the filling of such as a
boat with
water.Ground may be regarded as waterlogged when the
water table of the
ground water is too high to conveniently permit an anticipated activity. After heavy rain, it may prevent the playing of
cricket or other outdoor sports. In
agriculture, various
crops need
air (specifically,
oxygen) to a greater or lesser depth in the
soil. Waterlogging of the soil stops air getting in. How near the
water table must be to the surface for the ground to be classed as waterlogged, varies with the purpose in view. A crop's demand for freedom from waterlogging may vary between seasons of the year, as with the growing of
rice (Oryza sativa).
