When soil becomes too salty what are some methods of remediation?

Difficult to remediate as salts are not easily broken down . Mainly the remediation goals are to flush the salts down into the soil profile, allowing vegetation to return to the top layer. Not really a solution, rather displacement of the problem. Promising results have been obtained using humates and other organic media. The mechanisms are not fully understood but worth investigating.

What is involved in soil remediation?
Soil remediation involves adding substances to the soil which have been depleted or lost in order to ensure that the soil will grow plants or trees again. The process is often used when soil has been overgrazed by domesticated animals such as sheep, or after farmers have planted the same crop too many years in a row.
Which factors causes crops to stop growing in sumer?
pour drainage and salty soil
How are halophytes able to tolerate salty soil?
The halophytes are able to tolerate salty soil because they can concentrate salt in their root cells and the high salt concentration keeps water from diffusing out of the cells into the surrounding salty soil.
A plant adapted to growing in salty soils?
A halophyte is a plant that can survive salty soil.
