We tend to increase soil salinity on irrigated land.
Irrigation water contains some dissolved solids. When water is lost from the soil through evaporation and evapotranspiration, those salts are left behind. Over the years they can build up to the point where plants can't grow in the soil anymore, unless the farmer occasionally irrigates enough to leach the salts out of the root zone.

What is the principal cause of soil along the Murray river?
The principal cause of soil degradation along the Murray River is improper land use. Certain agricultural practices cause erosion, whilst over-iriigating causes increased salinity.
