Significant research has been conducted on the effects of soil salinity issue on agricultural
productivity. However, limited consideration has been given to its critical effects on soil …

Conservation agriculture (CA) changes soil properties and processes compared to
conventional agriculture. These changes can, in turn, affect the delivery of ecosystem …

Mulching with polyethylene film is a common technique in rain-fed regions used to address
insufficient precipitation and heat, and thus promote crop growth, but it can lead to soil …

Salinization, a widespread threat to the structure and ecological functioning of inland and
