Innovative technologies in managing marginal lands merit immediate attention in view of climate change and its impact on low quality land and water resources. The management of degraded land and water resources on sustainable basis offers an opportunity for horizontal expansion of agricultural area in the country. During the last more than three decades, a number of packages to ameliorate different kinds of marginal lands (including salt affected areas) and poor quality watershave been developed. These technologies got wide support from the policy-makers as well as from farming community through the concerted efforts of all concerned. As such, over 1.3 million ha salt affected lands have been reclaimed and put to productive use in India. It has been estimated that reclaimed area is contributing more than 8 million tons food grains to the national pool. However, in future there will be many emerging areas of research needing urgent attention of the scientific community engaged in marginal land and water research. We need to be prepared for the future challenges right from today. The challenges will be tackled smoothly if we have trained and technologically updated manpower available in the country. Thus, CSSRI is organizing a Short Course Training on ‘Advanced Technologies in Land and Water Remediation and Management’. This training programme will focus on the issues of strategic relevance in marginal land and water reclamation research. These issues include reclamation and management of marginal salt affected lands and waters in future context, with limited resources and with new tools, and will mainly focus on challenges and solutions for tackling these problems.

ABOUT CSSRI:
CSSRI is an Internationally renowned Institution in the field of salt affected land and water research. The Institute, since its inception has done commendable research in the area of reclamation and management of marginal quality salty lands and poor quality waters.
The Indian Council of Agricultural Research has honoured Institute’s research contribution by conferring ICAR-Best Institute Award twice in the last ten years. The scientific excellence of the Institute has received recognition in the form of very high civilian awards including Padma Bhushan and Padma Shri. Scientists of the Institute bagged almost all the awards and Fellowships available in the agricultural research arena at National and International level. The institute’s research farm and outreach stations are strategically located in different agro-ecological regions for tackling diverse aspects of soil and water salinity problems.
