This paper describes a modification of the standard procedure for preparing saturated extracts of salt-affected soils whereby soil saturation is approached from the wet, rather than from the dry, side. This new method offers considerable saving in time and labor of preparting saturated soil pastes for extraction and analysis. An effective test for the end point of saturation and modern extraction equipment are also described.
