growing fruit trees my bore

Question

My bore water is slightly salty, and my fruit trees either die when I plant them or grow very slow. How do I get around this problem?

Answer 1

You may not be able to correct the adverse conditions without changing the water source or desalinating your well water.

Improving soil organic matter content can help a little. Use plenty of compost for planting and mulching,
