Salt buildup can eventually make the land unproductive by reducing soil fertility and inhibiting plant growth. High levels of salt in the soil can also increase soil erosion and hinder water infiltration, which further reduces crop productivity. While increased salt levels can initially decrease yield, it is not a sustainable solution for improving crop growth.
