Abstract
Abiotic stress, particularly soil salinity, is currently to blame for a decline in the quality of world crop production and significant losses to global agricultural output. Plants are faced with enormous difficulties as a result of this stress, which has a detrimental effect on their productivity, growth, and development. In recent years, the amount of cultivated land with salinity and alkalinity issues has expanded. Agro-techniques for reclamations of saline soils such as leaching, drainage, using soil amendments, suitable choice of crops and varieties, etc. have been standardised over the years for its management due to the need to increase agricultural productivity as the global population grows exponentially. To improve crop output, it is necessary to increase agro techniques for managing and reducing soil salinity. The mechanism, traits, impacts, and reclamation of soil salinity for improved crop growth and development will all be covered in this paper
