Some crops grow better in salty soil than others. Researchers tested different crops and tillage methods in rice fields to see which worked best. They found that zero tillage gave the highest yields for sorghum, sunflower, and cluster bean. Sorghum did the best overall, especially with zero tillage. The soil's pH and salt levels weren't affected by the tillage or crops. Zero tillage with sorghum was the cheapest and most profitable option. So, for salty soil in Karnataka, growing sorghum with zero tillage is the way to go.
