Abstract:
Salinity intrusion is a major issue for those who live near the coast in Bangladesh. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the salinity of various farmland and pond water; soil in two unions within the Paikhgachha upazila, which is situated in Bangladesh's southwest coastal region. Three bottles of water samples (each, 500 ml bottle), and one bag of soil samples were taken from each sampling region to maintain a high level of accuracy. This research of aquaculture water bodies revealed significant salinity, extremely high TDS levels, a wide range of EC, and various alkalinity ranges. Laskar and Deluti union agricultural areas, ponds, and aquaculture water bodies have an almost average pH. People in the Laskar Union are unable to consume surface water for drinking, as has been seen. People make an investment to purchase drinking water. The study will assist social workers, researchers, and policymakers in achieving various sustainable goals.
