Provision of Essential Minerals Through Foliar Sprays [PDF]
Approximately half of the world’s land surface is ‘perennial desert or dry lands’. These areas can only be made more productive by irrigation. Indiscriminate use of irrigation water without any management has created salinity problem at many places. Consequently, salinity has become a threat to food supply.
