One billion hectares of land worldwide is affected by several kinds salinity and associated problems. The soil quality (SQ) in salt-affected (SAS) impaired because the presence excess electrolytes, disproportionate Na Ca solution exchange phase, rhythmic changes hydrological cycle, decreasing organic matter, poor vegetative cover, low biological activity, crop residue return. Sodic saline–sodic...

Saline-sodic soils are susceptible to wind and water erosion when the dispersive effect of sodium overcomes inter-particle bonds. Rheological parameters viscoelasticity can help quantify attractive forces account for salinity in these soils. The main objective present study was investigate behavior saline-sodic Sirjan playa south-central Iran. Three representative pedons were excavated describe...

Sodic soils have immense productivity potential, if managed through proper technology interventions. Bio-compost is prepared by composting pressmud and gypsum received from waste material of mining can be used to reclaim sodic soils. Field experiments were conducted during the June-November 2018 2019 at ICAR - Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Sub Regional Station, Pusa (Samastipur), Biha...
