Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Sodic water increased soil sodium saturation.
- Intervention effect Sodic water decreased rice yield.
- Intervention effect Sodic water decreased wheat yield.
- Association Soil sodium buildup depended on the number of sodic water irrigations.
- Observation Soil sodium saturation increased progressively over the years.
- Observation Crop yield decline progressed over the years.
- Intervention effect Alternating sodic and nonsodic irrigation improved yield increasingly over time relative to sodic water alone.
- Recommendation The authors recommend minimizing sodic irrigations and monitoring soil sodium buildup.
