What are the = causes of soil salinization?

Answer 1

Using saline water for irrigation and irrigating fields under sunny hours with lots of water.

Soil salinization is a result of adding salt to the soil through irrigation with saline water.

A second significant concern is the use of excessive water when irrigating agricultural fields during hot weather, which will lead to water evaporation and some salt residue on the soil.
