Sowing on sides of ridges or in furrows made in salty soils can help increasing crop production.


Saline water of tube-wells can be corrected by passing it over gypsum blocks placed in water tanks (made in front of water fall and in water channels.


Saline soils can be improved by heavy watering of the fields for leaching of salts while sodic soils can be rectified by adding gypsum at the rate of 2-6 tons per acre depending upon the intensity of sodi city.
