Question

between difference between arid soil and saline soil​

Answer 1

Answer:

Soil Colour: Arid soils range from red to brown in colour. Soil Texture: They are generally sandy to gravelly in texture and have a high percentage of soluble salts. Other characteristic features: ... In some areas, the salt content is so high that common salt is obtained by evaporating the saline water.

Answer 2

Sodic soils have excessive levels of sodium (Na+) absorbed at the cation exchange sites in the clay particles. Soil sodicity causes degradation of soil structure and the sealing off of the soil pores so that roots and water can't penetrate.
