Buckwheat
A variety bred for adaptability to lowland areas, with high yields and good disease resistance.
Mostly sand with some silt and clay; better structure than sandy soil, good drainage, moderately fertile.
Mildly alkaline, may reduce the availability of some nutrients.
Adequate organic matter levels, common in well-managed agricultural soils.
Salinity begins to affect many common crops, reducing their growth and yield.
Impact: Moderate stress on crops like corn, wheat, and lettuce; salt-tolerant plants like barley may still thrive.
