Abstract

Many areas in Southern Italy covered by tomato crops suffer from problems of high salinity in the irrigation water, that adversely affects yield. The reduction in transpiration rate mitigates the adverse effects of salinity. Thus, spraying the crop with kaolin-based aqueous suspension, which has an antitranspirant effect, can help improve tolerance to salinity.
