Summary

Researchers found that adding compost as a soil amendment to saline-alkali soil effectively reduced pH while increasing enzyme activity and organic matter content. The study provides theoretical support for using compost to improve microbial diversity and soil quality in salt-affected agricultural lands.

The addition of compost effectively reduced soil pH and increased soil enzyme activity and organic matter content. An analysis of this study provides theoretical support for compost's use as a saline soil amendment.
