Abstract: This study investigates the hazardous effect of salinity on plant growth and soil moisture dynamics in the root zone. Field irrigation experiments on paddy (Oryza sativa L.—basmati variety) with varying levels of salinity ...

Abstract: The present study analyzes the effect of salinity on crop growth and root zone soil moisture dynamics. A newly developed root water uptake (RWU) model was used for simulation of soil moisture and RWU for irrigation field ...
