Summary:
Hydrophobic soil (water repellent) caused by dried out surface algae makes water sit on top or run off the surface and not soak into the plant’s rooting zone. Action needs to be taken to improve the wettability of the soil by integration of manures (as suitable to the plants) and organic matter (as suitable to the plants) and regular irrigation frequency.
