dc.description.abstract | Saline black soils (Vertisols), due to their inherent physical and chemical constraints such as high clay content, poor infiltration, low hydraulic conductivity and narrow workable moisture range pose serious problems for arable crop production even at low salinity levels. Such soils are prevalent in the coastal areas of Gujarat State, a western province in India. Cultivating salt tolerant forage grasses through saline agriculture has been suggested a possible approach to meet the fodder demands for the dairy cattle, a prominent agro-based industry in the State. Two grasses, Eragrostis tenella and Aeluropus lagopoides were cultivated on saline Vertisols with sub-surface salinity using saline groundwater under different nitrogen regimes. Results indicated that applied nitrogen, while favouring forage biomass, reduced salt content in the tissues and also enhanced forage quality. Nitrogen applied at the rate of 60 kh/ha has been found ideal for groqing grasses on such soils. These grasses have the potential to remove salt from the soils. Salt compartmentation at tissue level indicated roots and older leaves as potential sinks for toxic ions like sodium. Aeluropus lagopoides has been found to be a better salt remover that Eragrostis tenella and this grass also had better forage quality traits suggesting the possibility of using this grass in saline agriculture program in the region. | en_US |
