I did something different today. I made a ten point transect across a field to try to determine the extent of sodium problems. It involved deep borings, but not as much documentation as a septic tank investigation.
Sodium affected soils are common in the Southern Illinois Claypan region. The problem is not easily treated and reduces yields greatly. The lower picture shows that I was about half done with my boring at that point.
