Soil correction is one of the ways in agriculture lands development. The sodic ion alongside salin vocalizes the salin-sodic soil and cause divulge in plants growth. So necessary coure of action for the Soil correction by physical and chemical ways such as usage of calsium on the leaching is inevitable. In this study, area soils are digged from deep profiles of 0-20, 20-40, 40-60, 60-80 and 80-...

The byproducts of flue gas desulfurization (BFGD) are a useful external source of Ca(2+) for the reclamation of sodic soils because they are comparatively cheap, generally available and have high gypsum content. The ion solution composition of sodic soils also plays an important role in the reclamation process. The effect of BFGD on the soluble salts composition and chemical properties of sodic...

In regions like south of “ khouzestan” that water table are high, under the effect of water rise moving through capillary fringe and its vaporize,  the salts move to soil surface and cause salin or salin and sodic soils. Leaching assign as one of those adjustment soils methods. In order to investigate the leaching process and draw the curves of desalinization and dealkalization in region of Dar...

in order to comparision of the micromorphic properties of saline-sodic and nonsaline-nonsodic soils in the west of urmia lake, four soil profiles (2profile in saline-sodic soils and 2profiles in nonsaline-nonsodic soils) were investigated. these profiles were described and sampled using standard methods. soil samples were used for physico chemical analysis and undisturbed and oriented samples w...

Soil alkalinisation generally constitutes a major threat to irrigated agriculture in the semiarid regions of West Africa. The improvement of sodic soils is generally difficult and expensive. However, a recent study in the Niger valley in NIGER, reveals that a natural dealkalinisation is possible under natural conditions in a semi-arid climate. Transformation of non-saline sodic soil into brown ...

Regaining the agricultural potential of sodic soils in the Indo-Gangetic plains necessitates the development of suitable salt tolerant rice varieties to provide an entry for other affordable agronomic and soil manipulation measures. Thus selection of high yielding rice varieties across a range of sodic soils is central. Evaluation of breeding lines through on-station and on-farm farmers' partic...

Around the world, especially in semi-arid regions, millions of hectares of irrigated agricultural land are abandoned each year because of the adverse effects of irrigation, mainly secondary salinity and sodicity. Accurate information about the extent, magnitude, and spatial distribution of salinity and sodicity will help create sustainable development of agricultural resources. In Morocco, sout...

Sodic soils have low organic carbon content, microbial load and their activities which were the biological indicators of soil health. Soil organic carbon is the kay factor which derives the soil functions. A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of different amendments and micronutrient mixture on soil biological properties. Gypsum+GM, DSW (distillery spent wash) and GLM (Glyricidi...

General guidelines to reclaim saline or sodic soils do not adequately consider variables such as pH and the presence of organic matter that are known to affect soil stability. Poor structural stability of sodic, saline-sodic, and high-pH soils adversely influences crop yields; promotes piping, tunneling, and slope erosion; and can accelerate the failure of water conveyance systems. We evaluated...

Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress adversely affecting plant growth and crop production worldwide. Increased salinization of arable land is expected to have destructive universal effects, resulting in 30 % land loss within the next 25 years and up to 50 % by the middle of twenty-first century (Porcel et al. 2012; Kapoor et al. 2013; Abdel Latef and Chaoxing 2014). The term ‘‘salinity’’ ref...
