Abstract/Description: | The visual interpretation of IRS data on 1:50,000 scale facilitated delineation of waterlogged salt-affected soils in Loonkaransar area of IGNP command, Rajasthan. Lack of natural drainage and coarse soil texture facilitated waterlogging and soil salinization which ultimately affected the soil productivity. The high water table in the irrigated cropped and adjoining areas needs suitable soil and water management to avoid further deterioration. Highly salinized areas may be reclaimed by drainage installation followed by salt-leaching with good quality water. |
Description: | We are thankful to Head, Soils and Crop Management, and Director, CSSRI, Karnal for necessary encouragement and financial help. Thanks are also due to Sh S.K. Jha, Technical Officer and Sh. Parshottom Lal, Technical Assistant for soil analysis and tracing work |
