The document summarizes a field training at the Drainage Improvement and Research Directorate (DIRD) in Pune, India. It describes the week-long program, which included inauguration lectures on drainage systems and soil surveys, site visits to examine water logging and salinity issues, soil and water testing in the lab, and proposing remedial actions. The trainees observed water logging, salt deposits, and crop damage at sites, collected soil and water samples, and developed a contour map showing the affected saline areas based on test results. They recommended preventive measures like drip irrigation and curative actions such as installing cross drains and soil amendments to address the drainage and salinity problems.
