Soil sodicity originating from marginal groundwater [PDF]
Vadose Zone Journal, 2020 Soil salinity and sodicity are among the oldest soil and groundwater pollution problems and are widespread across the globe. Where salinity affects crop water uptake and yield, sodicity may additionally cause poorly reversible soil structure degradation ...

Ameliorating sodicity; what did we learn about ameliorating sodicity constraints with a range of treatments? Yield responses to ripping, gypsum and OM placement in constrained soils. [PDF]
, 2022 Take home message • In Qld, it appears a yield gap does exist for cereal grains with substantial positive yield increases generally from combinations of tillage and subsurface nutrient placements • In the early phases of the experiment, there has been

Validation of ‘Saltol’ QTL under sodicity
Electronic 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.

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

A review of salinity and sodicity in irrigation [PDF]
, 2010 Scarcity of fresh water has led to use of low quality waters (high sodicity and salinity) that were considered unsuitable for irrigation in the past. Mismanagement of irrigation using this water can increase the potential for soil degradation and limit ...

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