Salinity and Sodicity: The Number One Enemy of Agricultural Soil

Salinity represents the concentration of dissolved salts in water, both in the soil and in irrigation water.

High salinity limits the plant's ability to absorb water and, consequently, leads to nutritional imbalances: a classic example is blossom-end rot, caused by the plant's poor ability to absorb calcium from water.

A special case is sodicity (high sodium concentration), which is harmful both to the plant and because it degrades the soil's structure.

 

Some organic compounds, such as carboxylic acids, acidify the soil and sequester some of the salts, including harmful ones like sodium, effectively reducing salinity.
