Water availability alone cannot determine the quality of the root environment.
Healthy roots require both moisture and oxygen.
When excessive water occupies the pore spaces within the soil for prolonged periods, oxygen diffusion decreases and root respiration may become impaired.
Under these conditions, plant growth can decline despite the apparent abundance of water.
Engineering optimisation must therefore consider water and oxygen as complementary resources rather than competing objectives.
Radixora seeks to maintain hydraulic conditions that simultaneously support water availability, gas exchange and biological activity.
This balance represents one of the most important performance indicators of the complete system.
