Olive cuttings survival influences with saline water irrigation

Salinity stress is a foremost field of logical apprehension as it constraints plant as well as crop productivity.This condition has been advance damaged by social actions.Hence, there is much scientific encumber on researchers to increase crop yield under environmental stress consecutively to manage with the escalating food stress.The abiotic stress as salinity harmfully affects the survival and biomass production.Cuttings of three olive varieties namely Megaron, Chettoi and Arbequina were planted under the utilization of different levels of saline water for irrigation in tunnel to assess their survival.Olive cuttings took more time for survival than other plant cuttings.Saline water irrigation to three olive varieties cuttings showed very minute differences among treatments.Overall, saline water@4dSm -1 showed the highest number (2) in number of cuttings survived followed by saline water@6dSm -1 .Control and other saline water application levels showed the similar number of survived olive cuttings.Among olive varieties, Chettoi variety performed better (1.40 olive cuttings) than other two varieties.
