The threat of salinity: A scale review …

salinisation is a widespread phenomenon, with saline and sodic soils covering 932.2 Mha globally ( Rengasamy, 2006 ), and one of the major degradation threats worldwide, with mismanaged irrigation affecting 34.19 Mha ( Mateo-Sagasta and Burke, 2011) or over 10% of the total irrigated land ( Aquastat, 2016 ).

by 2050

The cumulative impact of climate change (based on the three RCP scenarios) and land use change is a projected increase in erosion rates of 13–22.5 % in agricultural lands of the EU plus UK by 2050. This sizable gap can be eliminated (or at least reduced) with management practices for reduced losses.
