Water Management for Soil and Landscape Health
A soil-first look at runoff, irrigation, drainage, and moisture patterns that affect plant health.
Water problems are often soil problems. Compaction, poor organic matter, exposed ground, and plant selection can all affect how water moves through a property. Terra Preta helps identify the causes of runoff, dry spots, puddling, and inefficient irrigation.
- Properties with runoff, puddling, dry spots, or stressed plants
- Owners who want better irrigation decisions before adding more water
- Landscapes that need drought-resilient planting and soil structure support
- Step 1
Observe where water collects, sheds, or fails to reach the root zone.
- Step 2
Connect moisture behavior to compaction, soil cover, grade, and planting choices.
- Step 3
Recommend soil, planting, and irrigation adjustments that improve water use.
What You Can Expect
