## Abstract Competition for water resources, increasing land salinization and the need to feed a growing population are challenges facing irrigated agriculture in the Fergana Valley of Uzbekistan. Growing shortβseason legumes with waterβsaving irrigation technologies is one strategy for increasing
The yield of tomatoes for processing (Lycopersicon esculentum var. VF145 B. 7879) grown in artificially salinized plots, was reduced by 10% for every 1.5 mmhos/cm increase in ECe above 2.0 mmhos/cm. Yield reduction was the same for equal mean soil salinities regardless of leaching and the rate of sa
