The main problem in using saline water is to prevent the accumulation of excessive salt levels in the soil profile. One must establish an agricultural regime that ensures average soil salinity changes around a given acceptable stationary level. Irrigation management techniques have been empirically developed since ancient times in certain areas of the world, and for many decades scientists have been formulating rules that are still being improved. Facing the problems of the choice of method for saline water application this article examines water sources, different methods and other technical aspects.
