Draining Alkali Soils and Crop Options Discussed
The article explains ditching and drainage to reduce alkali soil water. It notes drainage feasibility depends on area, water source, and soil porosity, with benefit sometimes not justifying cost. It suggests crop rotations and alkali tolerant grains like oats and wheat as less effective alternatives.
