Technology for Mitigating Negative Consequences of Water Scarcity and Salination in Arid Regions by Phytomelioration Measures

Abstract

The article presents the results of scientific research on water scarcity in Uzbekistan in recent years, ways to reduce its negative consequences, sustainable and high yields in years and regions with acute water scarcity, and reducing the use of phytomeliorant plants to improve land reclamation. It was also noted that after the harvest of winter wheat in conditions of water scarcity, the amount of salts in the soil decreased compared to the field without plowing, as a result of the cultivation of Carthamus tinctorius and Sorghum Moench pers from drought-resistant phytomeliorant plants and salt-resistant phytomeliorant plants, saline leaching standards were used less than 1509-2336 m3/ha compared to the plowed field, and 99.5-273.6 t/ha of grain and hay were obtained from secondary phytomeliorant plants.
