Abstract

Due to high soil salinity and sodicity variations, mean value for wet soil samples might not represent distribution center. Soil samples from 0–0.2, 0.2–0.5 and 0.5–1.0 m depths obtained with 25 m intervals from a plot (250 m by 300 m) with ground water 0.65 m below the soil surface. Regional variation for salinity and sodicity was investigated. With median for electrical conductivity and sodium adsorption ratio, soils are non-saline, non-sodic. These would be saline and sodic considering means.
