In relation to FULL, water savings were 40% in SDI and 9% in RDI. Soil salinity (ECe …), chloride concentration (Cle) and sodicity (SARe) measured in the saturation extract of 480 soil samples generally increased in …

mounded under the vine, we tested the effects that various changes to vineyard floor management had on soil salinity and … sodicity, the concentrations of sodium and chloride in leaves and fruit, and yield. Both removal of the under-vine soil mound … salinity of under-vine soils by about 48%. Both rainfall harvesting and re-direction and application of soluble calcium reduced …

salinity and sodicity were generally higher in the more severe RDI than in the full irrigation treatment. Soil salinity and … sodicity generally increased along the irrigation seasons and decreased along the non-irrigation seasons. Salt accumulation or … salinity control. Grapevine yield declined with increases in soil salinity. Leaf Na concentrations were very low (<0.1%), but …

Waters with low salinity and high sodium adsorption ratios (SARs) present a challenge to irrigation because they … degrade soil structure and infiltration capacity. In the Powder River Basin of Wyoming, such low salinity (electrical … over non-irrigated soils (0.1–0.5). Only 8–15% of added Na has accumulated above the drip tubing. Sodicity has increased in …

Crop exposure to salinity can be episodic. The effects on the crop are the sum of those manifest whilst stress … soil salinity and leaf lamina Na+ and Cl− concentrations in previously salinised vines had fallen below the levels … associated with salinity-induced yield loss. Maximum yield loss of 22% averaged over the four seasons was higher than the maximum …
