Yes.
Sodic soils contain a lot of sodium ions. This can be due to sodium chloride, in which case it is also saline, or to sodium carbonate, when the word saline doesn't apply.

Saline soil is found in the southern arid region of India. Saline soils are formed by the accumulation of salts in the soil and groundwater.
Problem soils include saline soils, sodic soils, acidic soils, and compacted soils. Reclamation methods vary depending on the type of problem soil but can include adding soil amendments like gypsum for sodic soils, lime for acidic soils, and organic matter for compacted soils. Drainage improvement and crop rotation are other common strategies for reclaiming problem soils.
0.35% saline
Saline and alkaline soils cover about 7.67 million hectares in India. These soil types are primarily found in regions with arid and semi-arid climates, such as parts of Gujarat, Rajasthan, Haryana, and Punjab. Agricultural practices like proper irrigation and soil management are crucial in mitigating the adverse effects of these soils on crop productivity.

- using mining techniques - dissolving the salt in the deposit and after this extraction of the saline solution
yes, plants that are adapted to saline soils (such as coastal conditions) are called hallophytes
Crops that can thrive in saline soils include salt-tolerant varieties such as barley, wheat, and certain legumes like soybeans and chickpeas. Additionally, halophytes like quinoa and saltbush are specifically adapted to high salinity. These crops have developed mechanisms to cope with salt stress, allowing them to grow in conditions that would be detrimental to most conventional crops. Proper management practices can further enhance their growth in saline environments.
Bamboo species that can tolerate saline soil include Bambusa vulgaris and Bambusa balcooa. These species have shown resilience in coastal or saline environments, making them suitable for areas affected by salinity. Additionally, Phyllostachys species have some tolerance but may require specific conditions to thrive in saline soils. Overall, while many bamboos prefer well-drained, non-saline conditions, certain species can adapt to saline habitats.
Mining does not cause racism. Racism may influence how mining is accomplished in terms of who does what, and how well safety procedures are implemented.
