The waterlogging and soil salinity are some of the problems that has arisen since the Green Revolution.

Causes of this effect:

1. Irrigation without a proper water system.

2. The constant presence of water draws salt to the surface of the earth, which is deposited as a thin layer on the surface of the earth or begins to accumulate in the roots of plants.

Adverse effects:

1. Increased salt content causes a decrease in crop growth which causes serious agricultural damage.

2. The roots shrink due to salt water.
