The Optimal Layout Strategy for Subsurface Pipes to Improve Soil Desalination and Increase Crop Yield
A Meta‐Analysis
Bibliographic Data
Subsurface drainage systems are now used in various fields to control soil salinity, manage the water table, and increase crop yields by discharging groundwater and excess water from the soil. However, few studies have compared the effects of subsurface drainage systems on soil salinity and crop yield of different soil and climatic environments. Therefore, this study synthesized 891 experiments from 57 screened papers spanning 1979 to 2024. The results showed that fields with subsurface drainage system significantly reduced soil salinity by 25.56% and increased crop yield by 20.28% ( p p 3 2− , HCO 3 − , Na + , etc., and a significant increase ( p p p
