Salinization – the increasing amount of salt content in soil – contributes to land degradation, desertification and subsequently food insecurity. In the Middle East, the main constraint on ...

Soils have a natural characteristic called the cation exchange capacity (CEC) that allows them to hold (and exchange) cations (e.g., Ca+2 or Na+). These cations are held tight enough on the CEC that ...
