Seepage Interceptor Drains And Topsoil Salinity, T R. Negus
Seepage Interceptor Drains And Topsoil Salinity, T R. Negus
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The Department of Agriculture established 121 trials in its Narrogin advisory district starting in 1972 to measure the effect of bulldozer and grader built seepage interceptor banks and drains on the topsoil salinity of the land downslope of them.
After 14 years of moniterin, there was no evidence that seepage interceptor drains and banks reduced the top soil salinity on 10 of the 11 sites in the Pingelly, Brookton and Wickepin Shires.
Salinity Control In Northern China, G A. Robertson
Salinity Control In Northern China, G A. Robertson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
China has vast areas of saline land, perhaps as much as six million hectares. Some of this saline land is a result of marine influence in coastal areas and some is the resultof soil formation in areas with saline geological deposits and inadequate rainfall to leach out the salts at that time.
However, most saline soils in China are as a result of secondary salinisation processess induced by a hydrological imbalance resulting from over-clearing of the land or irrigation. This imbalance has produced rising watertables bringing the salt closer to the soil surface.
