Salt-sensitive crops are plants that struggle to grow in soils with high levels of salinity. These crops can experience reduced growth, lower yields, and even death when exposed to salty conditions. Common examples include rice, wheat, and soybeans, which are vital for food production worldwide. The sensitivity to salt is often due to the plant's inability to take up water effectively when salt levels are high. This can lead to physiological stress, affecting their overall health and productivity. Understanding which crops are salt-sensitive helps farmers manage soil conditions and select appropriate varieties for cultivation in saline environments.
