What crops are suitable for growing in saline-alkali land?

Saline-alkali land is formed under certain conditions, which means that the salt content in the soil is too high. Only some crops with good salt-alkali tolerance can be planted here, otherwise ordinary crops cannot grow here.

There are many plants suitable for planting in saline-alkali land. Common ones include ice-leaved sunflower, sweet sorghum, white willow, white wax tree, Sophora japonica, Sophora fruticosa, Populus euphratica, wolfberry, Elaeagnus angustifolia, Ulmus pumila, Ulmus round-crowned, Eurya littoralis, Ulmus pumila, and Sophora japonica.

1. Sweet sorghum

Sweet sorghum is also called "second-generation sugarcane" because its stems have a high sugar content. It can not only be used as food, but also made into brooms, etc. It is drought-resistant, flood-resistant, and saline-alkali-resistant, and can be grown in saline-alkali land.

2. Ice vegetable

This plant is very resistant to drought and salinity, but is afraid of cold and heat. It has a crisp taste and unique flavor. Generally, it does not need to be watered within 10 days after planting, but there must be sufficient light.

3. Ulmus pumila

The plant white elm is mostly planted in the saline-alkali areas of the Northeast. It has very good adaptability to saline-alkali land, but it must be planted in a place with sufficient light, otherwise it is very likely to cause the plant to grow too tall.
