Plantation of salt tolerant trees on salt affected land is an environmental friendly and
economically viable strategy to live with salinity where ground water is also highly saline.
We studied growth response of eucalyptus camaldulensis on salt affected land and its
impact on soil pH, EC, SAR, organic matter contents and infiltration rate. Two sites were
selected with varying levels of natural salinity. Eucalyptus seedlings were grown on both
sites for three years. A wide variation exhibited in growth of eucalyptus plants at each site …

Plantation of salt tolerant trees on salt affected land is an environmental friendly and
economically viable strategy to live with salinity where groundwater is also highly saline. We
studied growth response of Eucalyptus camaldulensis on salt affected land and its impact on
soil pH, electrical conductivity (EC), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), organic matter contents
and infiltration rate. Two sites (Chak No. 37/GB and Chak No. 74/GB) in Satiana, Faisalabad,
Pakistan, were selected with varying levels of natural salinity. Eucalyptus seedlings were …
