“…Some of these changes were positive, while others were adverse and have led to deterioration or even degradation of such schemes [1]. Some of the reported adverse impacts include salinity, water logging, human health and decrease in crop yield which may be due to inadequate drainage facilities or poor water management consequently giving rise to soil infertility and reduced crop yield [2]. Also, improper use of fertilizer and poor irrigation water quality have resulted in loss of nutrient and cation exchange capacity of the soil [3,4].…”

The importance of irrigation practice in food production cannot be over-emphasised, however irrigation practices impact soils and other environmental parameters negatively. This necessitates the need for continuous monitoring of the impacts of irrigation on soils and the general environment. A study was carried out on the Josepdam Irrigation Scheme (JIS) located in Bacita, Ilorin, Nigeria. This study was limited to the impact assessment of irrigation practices on the soil physical and chemical properties. Soil samples were collected from irrigated lands at depths 0-20, 20-80 and 80-120 cm from 8 OLs on JIS using soil auger. During each season of collection, samples were kept in polyethylene bags and transported within 24 hours to the laboratory for analyses. The samples were analysed immediately according to ISRIC-FAO procedures for pH, Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), Exchangeable Sodium Percent (ESP), Mg2+, Ca2+, Na+ and Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR). The results indicated that the soil texture was sandy loam and sandy clay loam, In JIS, the pH of 7.2 at inception reduced to 4.6; SAR increased from 0.4 to 2.14 meq1/2 and CEC increased from 18 to 26 cmolkg-1. The impacts of irrigation on the soil was determined. The results of these evaluations were compared with FAO standards and past research results.

“…For most crops, there is a trade-off between crop yield and fruit quality (Xiao et al, 2015;Waltz, 2015). If farmers concentrate their attention on fruit yield, other agricultural practices that are effective at alleviating plant salt stress, such as organic matter application (Cao et al, 2016), may still need to be applied to attenuate the disadvantages of saline irrigation to maximize crop yields. However, if fruit quality is considered, the bene ts of the 6.5 dS•m − 1 and 8.1 dS•m − 1 treatments may exceed that of the 1.7 dS•m − 1 treatment since they can maintain not only a relatively high yield but also obviously improve fruit quality, as indicated by increases in the vitamin C, soluble sugar and solids, glucose, fructose and sucrose contents (Fig.…”

[Aims] The shortage of freshwater resources and soil salinization have always been considerable challenges for agricultural production in the Yellow River Delta. Safe and efficient use of saline water resources is thus urgently needed. [Methods] To reveal the effects of irrigation with underground saline water on soil salinity, yield and quality of drip-irrigated winter jujube, a field trial was conducted from 2020 to 2022. The experiment was conducted with 5 levels of blending a mix of groundwater and freshwater, namely, 1.7 (T1), 3.3 (T2), 4.9 (T3), 6.5 (T4) and 8.1 (T5) dS·m-1. [Results] The results for three aspects were as follows: (i) Soil surface salinity accumulation occurred when the irrigation water salinity was greater than 4.9 dS·m-1 in 2020, and salinity was maintained in balance in the following two years owing to adequate rainfall during the planting period. (ii) Compared to T1, irrigation with 3.3 dS·m-1 or 4.9 dS·m-1 of saline water had no significant effect on yield, and the winter jujube yield decreased with increasing irrigation water salinity. (iii) Saline water irrigation improved winter jujube quality, as evidenced by the increase in soluble sugar, total soluble solids, titratable acid, vitamin C and flavonoid contents. When the irrigation water salinity ranged from 4.9 dS·m-1 to 8.1 dS·m-1, the comprehensive quality was within the appropriate scope. [Conclusions] Considering the yield, quality and salt accumulation of winter jujube, drip irrigation is conducive to ensuring the sustainability of winter jujube with saline water salinities less than 4.9 dS·m-1.

“…Moreover, the application of gypsum with salicylic acid was more efficient than gypsum alone under saline water irrigation. Na+ and Cl-are the two salt ions in saline water that may induce ion toxicity for plants (Cao et al, 2016). As some researchers have mentioned in their research, NaSO 4 will be produced from the reaction of gypsum (CaSO 4 ) with NaCl, which can leach from soil easily (Mao et al, 2014;Yu et al, 2014).…”

Purpose: Salinity stress negatively affects plant growth, which leads to a decline in the food source. Low rainfall and high water evaporation rates in some regions are serious problems in the field of agriculture. In saline soil, plants are unable to absorb water. The aim was to find some amendments to reduce the toxic effects of saline soil. Research Method: In this study, a pot experiment was performed to study the ameliorative role of gypsum (G; 0.38 g per 200 g of soil) and salicylic acid (SA was sprayed on the leaves at two different times) on pepper growth. Two concentrations of NaCl (50mM and 100mM) were used for irrigation every two days. After 18 days, some growth characteristics, including shoot and root length, dry and fresh weight, salt tolerance index, leaf surface area, and chlorophyll content, were evaluated.Findings: The results showed that the application of gypsum alone and with foliar spray of SA was effective in reinforcing the pepper seedlings under salinity stress, regardless of salt concentration. Research limitations: Limited availability of some advanced instruments to collect more data.Originality/value: The investigated ameliorator can be used to improve plant growth under salinity stress.
