Tech/Engineering - Agriculture / irrigation
English term or phrase: Ponding
Hi, I wonder if you could help me out with the term "ponding" in this agricultural context.

"Two basic categories of surface irrigation:
• Ponding: Surface water pooled in a puddle
• Moving water: Runoff or ponding to guarantee adequate infiltration at the lower end of the field"

thanks in advance for your help!
