    Water logging refers to saturation of soil with water bringing the water table to the surface. It is caused by seepage from canal systems, heavy rainfall, over irrigation, floods, and inadequate drainage. This leads to lower oxygen levels in plant roots reducing growth. Salinity is the process where groundwater rises and evaporates, leaving salt behind due to dry climate, low precipitation, and high evaporation rates. Proper drainage systems, lining canals, growing salt tolerant plants, and installing tubewells can help address water logging and salinity issues plaguing Pakistan's agriculture.

    Salinity

    A process by which ground


    water rises and evaporates
    leaving the salt behind.

    Salinity

    Causes Effects Solutions

     dry climate and low precipitation  It decreases the production of most  Tubewells should be installed
    when excessive salts are not flushed the crops  Growth of salt loving plants
    from the earth surface  Low economic returns due to  Building lined canals
     High evaporation rates which adds agricultural reduction
    salts to the ground
     Waterlogging when salts are not
    washed due to the lack of water
    transportation
     Introduction of perennial canals the

    Water shortage in Pakistan
     Water shortage in Pakistan is caused by human and natural reasons

     Global warming is fundamental threat to water shortage in many areas of Pakistan

     Precipitation has decreased 10 to 15 percent in the coastal belt leading to droughts in 1999
    and 2000
