als, high pH, and low sesquioxides content was found to be susceptible to sodic conditions, with the magnitude Combined effects of soil conditions (wetting rate), soil sodicity, of the decrease in HC being strongly dependent on the and salinity on soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (HC) have not been studied systematically and were the objective of our study. We electrolyte concentration in ...

Present investigations were carried out during 1998-2000 at Shivri farm of Uttar Pradesh Bhumi Sudhar Nigam, Lucknow, India, to study the effect of vermicompost application in reclaimed sodic soils on the productivity of potato (Solanum tuberosum), spinach (Spinacia oleracea) and turnip (Brassica campestris). The soil quality was monitored during the experiment followed by productivity. The tre...

A large number and growing proportion of both single lot residential and larger scale new developments in the Hunter Region are not serviced by a conventional reticulated sewerage system. In such cases, wastewater treatment, its possible reuse and final disposal, is on-site, where the effluent is generated. A range of geotechnical factors including the site geology, geomorphology, soils, availa...

to study the effects of soil amendments on physical and hydraulic properties of a saline-sodic sandy clay loam soil, a field experiment was carried out as a complete block design with three replications. the treatments in this research consisted of control (b), 10 ton ha-1 gypsum (g), 10 ton ha-1 urban solid compost (c), three levels of vinyl alcohol acrylic acid (s1= 0.05%, s2= 0.1%, s3= 0.2%)...
