Integrated Soil Salinisation Management Strategies in Agriculture

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
This review synthesises integrated water, agronomic, and biochemical strategies for managing soil salinisation, presenting a decision framework for selecting cost‐effective amendments based on initial soil assessment and long‐term sustainability monitoring. ABSTRACT Soil salinisation poses a global threat to agricultural sustainability, affecting about

Stylosanthes cv. Campo Grande response to Bradyrhizobium inoculation in an Amazon Cerrado Oxisol

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Species of the genus Stylosanthes show great potential for use in mixed pastures and as green manure due to their symbiotic potential in symbiosis with diazotrophic bacteria, particularly Bradyrhizobium. These herbaceous legumes can improve pasture quality and contribute to sustainability.

The mulch dilemma: Trade‐offs between soil water conservation and microirrigation water retention

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Mulching is widely used worldwide to reduce soil water evaporation, but it can also intercept and retain rain or irrigation water, limiting infiltration into the soil and thereby altering the soil water balance. Microsprinkler irrigation in dwarf coconut orchards applies water in small, frequent doses, producing shallow, near‐surface wetting ...

Inoculation and Co‐Inoculation With Plant Growth–Promoting Bacteria in Chickpea: Physiological Aspects and Plant Growth

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The inoculation of plants with growth‐promoting and nitrogen‐fixing bacteria is considered an effective alternative to reduce the use of nitrogen fertilizers and promote plant growth. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of inoculation and co‐inoculation with growth‐promoting bacteria on the physiological traits and growth of chickpea plants.

The Role of Toposequence and Underground Drainage in Variation of Groundwater and Salinity Levels in Irrigated Areas

Hydrology
In irrigated areas around the world, the recommendation for the use of subsurface drainage is also associated with controlling salinity problems. Due to the high implementation cost, the search for solutions that make this requirement more flexible is ...

Efficiency of water application of irrigation systems based on microsprinkling in banana plantations

Scientia Agricola, 2013
Further food production may be limited by the reduced availability of water resources. Since irrigated agriculture is the productive sector that presents a higher demand of water, this sector has been under intense pressure in order to ensure food ...

Design, Simulation, and Economic Analysis of a Solar Photovoltaic‐Powered Pumping System for Drip Irrigation of a 1‐ha Bean Farm in a Tropical Climate

Journal of Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
A successful agricultural system, be it large‐scale or small‐scale, requires adequate irrigation of plants, regardless of seasonal changes in rainfall. Unreliable electricity supply in tropical regions has necessitated the use of alternate power sources for efficient irrigation.

Effect of Microsprinkler Irrigation on Pear Fruit Growth and Postharvest Quality [PDF]

HortTechnology, 2001
A study was undertaken to determine if microsprinkler irrigation (MI) can provide sufficient water and produce similar yield and quality of pear ( Pyrus communis L.) fruit as flood irrigation (FI) in a cracking (shrinking-swelling) clay soil.
