Soil moisture
The record reads surface and root-zone soil moisture over a field and sets it against the field’s own multi-year normal. It answers whether the soil is wetter or drier than usual, and whether it is drying or wetting.
For crop insurers’ claims desks, agronomy teams, and lenders checking conditions behind a claim or a loan.
