Abstract/Contents: | Discusses characteristics of saline, sodic (saline-alkali), and alkali soils and describes visual symptoms and plant symptoms for each. Leaching is the only practical way of correcting saline soils, but amendments such as gypsum- or sulfur-containing materials may free up sodium ions in alkali soils so they can be leached freely. A soil chemical analysis can determine the extent of saline and/or alkali problems. The frequency of leaching and amount of water needed depends on soil texture and salt concentration. The amount of amendments required to improve an alkali condition depends on soil texture and sodium ion concentration. Salt tolerant levels for some common turfgrass species are presented also. |
