(7769) Imperfect drainage
Drainage that does not remove water fast enough, such that waterlogging may persist for two or more weeks after rainfall or the ground-water table may rise into the plant root zone long enough to inhibit plant growth during a wet spell. Occurs in soils that lose gravitational water slowly.
