One of the most difficult challenges facing coal mining industry is rehabilitation open cut mines in absence sufficient quality and quantity topsoil. As a result, growth medium for often mine spoil that has poor chemical structural properties. Microorganisms play critical role natural soil forming processes, nutrient cycling aggregate stabilisation. However, microbiota their impact on chemistry...

Reclaimed tidelands (RTLs) in the southwestern coastal areas of South Korea has been used for rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivation due to high salinity soils. However, there is increased social pressure utilize RTLs upland crop decreased consumption. In this study, and sodicity 16 located were investigated explore suitability cultivation. Surface (0 - 20 cm) soil samples collected from 241 paddy ...

Soil salinization and sodification are common processes that particularly characterize drylands. These can be attributed either to natural conditions or anthropogenic activities. While causes include factors such as climate, lithology, topography, pedology, human mostly related agricultural land-use, specifically, irrigated agriculture. The objective of this study was thoroughly review topic, w...

The study focused on investigating the contribution of reclamation strategies saline-sodic soils and their impacts soil fertility characteristics. In this study, treatments were denoted as: SG1 SG2 (23.8 47.7 ton/ha spent grain); TC1 TC2 47.6 compost); Azospirillium in inoculation with seed (Az); Az + (Az+SG1); (Az+TC1); mineral fertilizers (NPK); control (CK). All mixed pots 30 kg soil. result...

Present study was carried out to assess the effects of soil salinity/sodicity on mineral nutrient status Urochondra setulosa, Leptochloa fusca and Sporobolus marginatus at ICAR- Central Soil Salinity Research Institute, Karnal, Haryana during 2016–19. Treatments (pH ~ 9.5, pH 10, ECe 30 dS/m, 40 dS/m 50 dS/m) were created in microplots (2.5 m × 1.5 0.5 m) using saline/sodic water. Na+ Cl– conte...
