Extract

The effect of different amounts of irrigation water on the salts in Gezira soil has been studied by comparison of different rotations in two long-term experiments at the Gezira Research Farm. The conclusion is drawn that none of the rotations studied shows any evidence of salts rising or accumulating in the profile. There is some evidence of a removal of salts from a 6 ft. profile.
