According to FAO, an estimated 34 million hectares of irrigated farmland are affected by high salinity, representing 11 percent of the total irrigated land worldwide. High salinity is an especially severe problem in Central Asia, where over-irrigation in the Aral Sea Basin since the Soviet era has forced salts to be drawn up to the surface, stripping the soil of its fertility. Farmers have few options—to abandon their land or invest heavily in expensive drainage systems. But WLE researchers think that growing licorice may be a low-cost option to rehabilitate degraded lands.
