Hats off to graeme cox and his team for the development of optisurface and to associated service providers, who make cost effective surface drainage with continuously variable grades (curved. Water moves through these soils much as it does in saline soils, although the steps for correcting saline sodic soil are different. simply leaching the salts from this soil will convert it from saline sodic to sodic soils. Soluble salts are measured by taking a sample of soil, adding enough water (salt free) to the soil sample to completely saturate it, and extracting water from the saturated soil after several hours of equilibration using a vacuum to obtain a satura tion extract.

Proper management procedures, combined with periodic soil tests, are needed to prolong the productivity of salt afected soils. this fact sheet describes techniques for managing saline soils. management for sodic soils may difer and is described in fact sheet 0.504, managing sodic soils. In this study, we developed a composite soil amendment by incorporating biochar, salt tolerant bacteria, alkaline soil amendment and vermicompost to evaluate its effectiveness in rehabilitating saline alkali soil and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Thus, the decision to use an amendment for the reclamation of saline soils having excess neutral soluble salts and a high sar of soil solution (the so called saline sodic soils) would depend on soil infiltration characteristics and the electrolyte level of the irrigation water. One method of addressing a soil salinity problem is to select and plant salt tolerant vegetation in saline soil areas. table 1 lists common garden and landscape plants and their tolerance to soil salinity.
