Summary

Study is directed to soil desalination based on leaching with regard for   precipitation,   drain   design   effectiveness   definition   and imrovement. Climate is continental, dry. Relief-weakly sloped plain. Soils-sierozem-meadow, loam, saline, sulfate-chloride. Ground water depth is 0-2.0m and salinity is 15-20g/l, sulfate-chloride. Subsurface drainage specific extent is 37.8 m/ha, depth 3.5-4.0m. Plot is equipped by measuring devices. In result of research main principles of land desalination have been developed   by   means   of   outstripping   subsurface   drainage construction taking into account precipitation, reducing term of land development.  Subsurface drainage  main parameters and design are recommended.

Key words
