Abstract
Because water characteristics can affect soil and plant status, it is important to check water quality periodically. However, water analysis reports are often confusing and cumbersome to read, focused primarily on monitoring sodium contents and little else. This new 3-page publication reviews several important water quality properties that need to be assessed when water samples are sent for analysis. Written by Marco Schiavon and Kimberly Moore.
