Damage to soil and crop due to excess moisture after heavy rains

  • Water is the source of life, but too much of it kills. During heavy rains and floods, people and surrounding flora and fauna are also affected by it.

  • If there is no proper drainage in the field, excessive moisture after heavy rain in the soil creates a high possibility of fungal diseases and bacterial diseases in the soil. Along with this, due to excess moisture, the outbreak of insects in the soil is very high.

  • Soil erodes after excessive rain, due to which there is a lack of nutrients in the soil.

  • If we talk about the crop, then the yellowing of the crops, the curling of the leaves, the premature wilting of the crop, the fall of the fruits in the immature stage, the irregular shape of the spots on the fruits, is due to excess moisture.

  • The deficiency of nutrients in the crop greatly affects crop production.
