Role of organic amendments in improving the morphophysiology and soil quality of under salinity.

Salinity negatively impacts soil fertility by impairing the development and physiological functions of foxtail millet plants. Organic amendments have emerged as a viable solution in the reclamation and management of salinity inflicted soils and improve the performance of crop. In this regard, a pot experiment was carried out to examine the effect of organic amendments (OAs) on soil quality and its influence on the growth and physiology of foxtail millet under saline and non-saline condition.

Organic Amendments for Mitigation of Salinity Stress in Plants: A Review.

Natural and/or human-caused salinization of soils has become a growing problem in the world, and salinization endangers agro-ecosystems by causing salt stress in most cultivated plants, which has a direct effect on food quality and quantity. Several techniques, as well as numerous strategies, have been developed in recent years to help plants cope with the negative consequences of salt stress and mitigate the impacts of salt stress on agricultural plants. Some of them are not environmentally friendly.
