Description
Plant species vary in how well they tolerate salt-affected soils. Some plants will tolerate high levels of salinity while others can tolerate little or no salinity. This brief fact sheet looks at how soil salinity is measured and categorized, and then presents a table delineating the salt tolerance of various types of plants, including field crops, forages, vegetables, and trees and shrubs.
