A pot experiment was conducted to determine the effect of saline water on the establishment of windbreak trees and soil properties. Survival period of trees decreased significantly with increase in soil salinity resulted from irrigation water salinity. The survival period of Prosopis juliflora was significantly more than Casuarina equisetifolia and Eucalyptus camaldulensis. The decrease in total biomass yield was significant with increase in soil salinity. Soil salinity and sodicity increased significantly with an increase in irrigation water salinity and sodicity. Prosopis juliflora tolerated soil salinity (EC e) up to 38.3 dS.m-1 with irrigation water salinity of 13.5 dS.m-1, Casuarina equisetifolia up to 27.6 dS.m-1 with irrigation water salinity of 6.6 dS.m-1 and Eucalyptus camaldulensis up to 15.2 dS.m-1 with irrigation water salinity of 2.12 dS.m-1 for proper establishment provided 15% excess water is applied as leaching requirement to control soil salinity. The experiment proved the sequence in salt tolerance for different trees as prosopis > casuarina > eucalyptus. The results suggested that prosopis juliflora should be cultivated as windbreak trees in landscape and sand stabilization projects.
