Abstract

: This study was planned to thrash positive effects of different organic amendments not only on yield of rice
and wheat plants, but also on its role as a recovery agent. To achieve this purpose, sodic soil having pH = 8.75, TSS
(total soluble salts) = 25.3 me L-1 , SAR (sodium adsorption ratio) = 25.65 (mmol.L -1 ) 1/2 was selected and filled in pots.
Experiment consisted of 9 treatments that were repeated 4 times using a completely randomized design.
