Impact of Drought and Changing Water Sources on Water Use and Soil Salinity of Almond and Pistachio Orchards: 1. Observations

open access: yesSoil Systems, 2021
Soil salinity increases when growers are forced to use higher salinity irrigation waters due to water shortages. It is necessary to estimate the impact of irrigation water on soil properties and conditions for crop growth to manage the effects of ...

Afforestation affects vertical distribution of basic soil characteristics and taxonomic status of sodic soils

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2022
Afforestation, settled before 60-90 years and adjacent solonetzic grasslands, representing the natural vegetation cover were compared in this study based on their basic soil characteristics (pH, CaCO3 content, soil organic carbon (SOC), and exchangeable ...

Quantitative Estimation of Saline-Soil Amelioration Using Remote-Sensing Indices in Arid Land for Better Management

open access: yesLand, 2022
Soil salinity and sodicity are significant issues worldwide. In particular, they represent the most dominant types of degraded lands, especially in arid and semi-arid regions with minimal rainfall.

Validation of ‘Saltol’ QTL under sodicity

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016
Development of rice varieties with sodicity tolerance would help to boost the rice productivity in salt affected areas of Tamil Nadu. A major QTL ‘Saltol’ has been reported to be responsible for conferring salt tolerance at seedling stage in rice.

Studies on physio-chemical attributes of barnyard millet [Echinochloa frumentacea (Roxb.) Link] under sodicity

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2023
Barnyard millet (E. frumentacea) is a miracle crop due to its early mature, climate resilient capacity and nutrient potential. It is a hardy crop which can withstand a variety of abiotic stresses and one such limiting stress is sodicity.

Role of Calcium and Vegetation in salinity and desertification (Western India)

open access: yesEnvironment Conservation Journal, 2016
Excess salinity is one of the main factors for low productivity of land and desertification. To know the effect of salinity and sodicity on vegetation study was taken at Little Rann of Kutch (saline desert). Ca have positive since EC and Na have negative

Effect of irrigation water quality on soil properties and infrared spectroscopic signatures

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2020
Aim of study: To study the effect of irrigation with medium-to-low-quality water on an olive farm that seems to be causing salinity and/or sodicity problems in soils, and the ability of infrared spectroscopy to detect this problem.
