Salinity is one of the most critical challenges for crop production and soil water management in arid semi-arid regions, such as a large area Morocco. These regions are characterized by low rainfall with an erratic distribution, long drought periods, high evaporation, resulting salt accumulation superficial layer degradation. Therefore, phosphogypsum (PG) could be promising amendment to reduce ...

The present study aimed to assess the relationship of soil properties in salt-affected soils. samples were collected from 14 districts Pakistan. Soil salinity and sodicity are common features arid semiarid regions. effects salt’s interactions with micronutrients have not been well studied. Therefore, saline non-saline different locations. microelements (Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn) fractionated into water-s...

Rapid identification and large-scale mapping of salt-affected lands will help improve salinity management in watersheds and ecosystems. This study was conducted to examine spectral reflectance of soils treated with saline solutions containing NaCl, NaHCO3, Na2SO4, and CaSO4.2H2O. Spectral reflectance was measured upon salt crusts formed on two soils (Torrifluvents) subirrigated with saline solu...

Saltwater intrusion is a potential risk damaging crop diversity and productivity due to degraded soil physicochemical properties. However, little known about how salinity affects the structure function of nematodes community in intensive rice cultivated area. This study aimed (1) assess impacts saltwater on nematode alluvial acid sulfate soils; (2) evaluate its relation with conditions. reduced...
