Estimate the leaching requirement when electrical conductivity (EC) value of a saturated extract of soil is 10 m mholcm at 25% reduction in the yield of a crop. The EC of irrigation water is 1.2 m.mho/cm. What will be the required depth of water to be applied to the field if the consumptive use requirement of the crop is 80 mm? EC value of the leaching water may be suitably assumed.

Estimate the leaching requirement when electrical conductivity
(EC) value of a saturated extract of soil is 10 m mho/cm at 25% reduction in the
yield cf a crop. The EC of irrigation water is 1.2 m.mho/cm. What will be the
required depth of water to be applied to the field if the consumptive use requirement
of the crop is 80 mm? EC value of the leaching water may be suitably assumed.
