Abstract: This article as a review, gives concise information on effects of saline irrigation water on various growth and yield attributes of various crops and their nutrient uptake rate by influencing the nutrient status in soil system. One of the major problems confronting irrigated agriculture nowadays throughout the world is the decreasing availability of fresh water. Nowadays, the competition for fresh water in the development of urbanization, industry and agriculture caused the decline of fresh water for irrigation. The progressive decrease of fresh water resources is leading towards the inevitable use of saline water for irrigation purpose. Any degradation in the quality of soil can significantly produce many undesirable changes in the environment and also reduces the overall crop yield. Adoption of suitable and possible handy options available to curb effect of saline water under cultivation of various crops is highly necessary to enhance the productivity by sustaining the environment.
