  1. SaliCrop Optimize crop yield: key takeaways from soil salinization report February 28, 2022  Salinization of Soil ­ What Is It? Excessive  salt  accumulation  in  the  soil  is  known  as  soil  salinization. NaCl is commonly used in this process. In addition to  these,  the  list  also  includes  various  sodium,  potassium,  calcium,  magnesium,  sulfates,  chlorides,  carbohydrates,  and  bicarbonates.  The salt­affected piles of the earth are generally classified as saline,  sodic, and saline­sodic, depending on the type of salt content. Water absorption is one of the primary effects of soil salination on plant growth. The inability to absorb enough water even when the  soil is sufficiently moist causes crops to wilt and die. The report of  the Intergovernmental Science­Policy Platform on Biodiversity and  Ecosystem Services (IPBES) of 2018 reveals that as a global scale: Approximately 190 million acres have been completely destroyed;  There is damage to 150 million acres; Salinization affects 2.5 billion  acres. Soil salinization: what causes it? The  earth  becomes  salinized  when  soluble  salts  are  retained.  Inappropriate anthropogenic activities, such as farming, can lead to  it naturally or artificially. Moreover, some earth is saline at first due to  their low salt dissolution rates. The following factors contribute to the  salinization of soil:

  2. Low precipitation due to dry climates and excessive salts that aren't Low precipitation due to dry climates and excessive salts that aren't  flushed from the ground; the rate of evaporation is high, causing the  ground surface to accumulate salts. Waterlogging and poor drainage caused by the inability to transport  water;  the  use  of  salt­rich  water  for  irrigation,  which  reinforces  earth's salt content; raised water tables and the removal of deep­ rooted vegetation result from this process; Geological deposit leakage and groundwater penetration; when salts from the sea infiltrate lower lands, sea levels rise; salty air masses blowing from coastal areas to nearby territories; salt  evaporation after submergence in seawater; Excessive  nitrification  accelerates  soil  salinization  when  fertilizers  are applied improperly. Salinity indicators of soil A good way to detect salinization is by examining the soil surface,  the rate at which water is absorbed, and the condition of the plants.  Salinization  signs  become  more  serious  over  time.  An  apparent  white  color  on  the  surface  is  indicative  of  salt  crystals.  It  is  also  possible to detect excess salt indirectly. A salty taste or poor water  quality will cause animals to refuse to drink water. Understanding  impact  and  solution  for  soil  salination  with  a  study: Irrigation  potential  has  been  developed  throughout  the  world  with  huge investments. Recent food shortages have raised the issue of  improving  water  management  and  efficiency  to  obtain  greater 

  3. benefits from irrigation. For  practical  methods  of  maintaining  optimum  conditions  for  maximum  output  per  unit  of  water,  it  is  vital  to  know  how  plant  growth cycles relate to moisture and salinity levels in the root zone. Understanding how root zone moisture and salinity levels relate to  plant growth cycles is crucial to maintaining optimum conditions for  maximum output per unit of water. One of the studies defines the role of irrigation timing and salinity  management  in  predicting  crop  response  to  irrigation  timing  and  salinity management, as well as providing practical approaches to  predicting  crop  response  to  irrigation  timing  and  soil  salination  management. According to the report, the following are some of the advantages of  the research program:  1. It is unique in that a sprinkler line is used as the sole source of  water  throughout  the  entire  experiment.  Water  supply  influences  yield significantly as determined by this approach. The following information is provided by these data: a. Accurate measurement of a crop's water requirements. b. When deficits should be accumulated during various stages of  crop growth.  c.Establishing  relationships  between  yield  and  evapotranspiration  from rainfall (dryland) to overirrigation. d.  In  order  to  assess  the  contributions  of  soil  water  holding  capacities to the water needs of crops.

  4. This  information  will  help  you  determine  how  to  utilize  the  root  system of a given crop type based on how long it takes to collect  water  during  the  growing  season.  This  information  can  influence  when to plant, how to space plants, and how to fertilize.  2. Besides water, the experimental setup lends itself to a study of  the effects of other input parameters on plant growth, such as fertility  levels and plant spacing.  3. The experiment can easily be adapted to accommodate several  kinds and/or species of animals. 4. This study applies to a wide variety of crop, climate, soil, and  water supply conditions (both non­site­specific and site­specific). 5.  Using  visual  and  quantitative  methods,  the  research  demonstrates the benefits of effective crop management.  6. Specifically, the study examines how soil salinity and available  soil  measures  affect  plant  yields,  both  in  the  United  States  and  internationally.  7. Developing countries can apply the research techniques readily. a.  Though  desirable,  a  sprinkler  system  for  irrigation  is  not  necessary. b.  There  are  many  advantages  to  this  research,  including  its  simplicity, low cost, ease of use, and wide range of information.  8. Research is a joint effort involving several institutions and highly  experienced researchers who have a proven record of working well  as an integrated team.

  5. as an integrated team. 9. The validity of the approach and viability of the results have been  demonstrated by a review of current research. Among the remaining  tasks  is  to  broaden  the  range  of  crops  and  demonstrate  that  the  results can be applicable to other regions. Soil salination  is a threat to agriculture and the food industry, thus there is an  urgent need to find ways and implement strategies to fight this!  Salicrop is one company that has worked to optimize crop yield and  address soil salination issues.  soil salinization To leave a comment, click the button below to sign in with Google.
