- Intervention effect Magnetic water treatment and soil mulching significantly enhanced strawberry crop growth and productivity.
- Intervention effect Magnetic water treatment and soil mulching significantly improved the soil moisture-salinity distribution under strawberry.
- Intervention effect Rice straw mulch at 5 t ha −1 did not differ significantly from black polyethylene mulch in almost all studied strawberry traits in both seasons.
- Intervention effect Magnetic water treatment increased strawberry water productivity by 18.6% over two seasons compared with untreated water.
- Intervention effect Magnetic water treatment significantly decreased soil salinity by 17.8% compared with untreated brackish water under strawberry.
- Intervention effect Integration of magnetic water treatment and straw mulch increased strawberry marketable yield compared with brackish water irrigation (32.6%).
- Intervention effect Integration of magnetic water treatment and straw mulch increased strawberry marketable yield compared with bare soil (40.9%).
- Recommendation Magnetic treatment of brackish water with straw mulch at 5 t ha −1 could be adopted as a sustainable practice for safe use of brackish irrigation water in strawberry cultivation.
- Recommendation Rice straw is a sustainable alternative to plastic mulch in strawberry cultivation.
