PPT-Soil salinity is a major threat to crop production in arid

Nuclear Institute for Agriculture and Biology NIAB played an effective role to learn to live with salinity and make profitable use of saline land and water resources Initially screening for salt tolerance species were carried out and the scientists identified one salt tolerant variety of cotton NIAB999 and one salt tolerant variety of wheat Sarsabz for saltaffected areas Two salt tolerant mutants one each of mungbean amp cowpea were developed and an early maturing cowpea mutant line was also identified that can tolerate salinity up to EC 10 dS m. - . grassroots perspective. WOTR - Maharashtra. In this presentation . Context – WOTR’s approach assessing and reducing vulnerability . Findings . - case studies . Preliminary Conclusions . The Context : . Physical . weather reduces the particle size of rocks and in doing so prepare the material for chemical weathering. The rate of all chemical reactions involving solids is determined by the amount of exposed surface area. These four drawing illustrates sequentially dividing particles into smaller particles.

During the first half of September, the monthly deficiency in rainfall rose to 30%.  . However, with La Nina ‘Watch’ still ‘ON’, India Ocean Dipole (IOD) staying neutral and Madden-Julian-Oscillation (MJO) remaining silent, the shortfall of September is likely to get covered to a large extent. .
