This value is calculated for the present crop, using the highest and lowest groundwater levels adjusted by subsidence. When the salt concentration is too high, this leads to a reduction of water absorption of plant roots, increased toxicity, problems with nutrients absorption and decreased root growth.

Notes

  • These yields are calculated by the Waterwijzer Landbouw API.[1]
