    The dry coffee grounds contain significant amounts of potassium (11.7 g/kg), nitrogen (27.9 g/kg), magnesium (1.9 g/kg), and phosphorus (1.8 g/kg). [5] The quantity of caffeine remaining in used coffee grounds is around 48% of that in fresh coffee grounds. [6] There are significantly less tannins in used coffee grounds than fresh coffee grounds ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_salinity

    Salts dissolved from the soil accumulate at the soil surface and are deposited on the ground and at the base of the fence post. Saline incrustation in a PVC irrigation pipe from Brazil. Soil salinity is the salt content in the soil; the process of increasing the salt content is known as salinization. [1] Salts occur naturally within soils and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_soil

    Where the ground water quality is not alkaline / saline and ground water table is high, salts build up in the soil can be averted by using the land throughout the year for growing plantation trees / permanent crops with the help of lift irrigation. When the ground water is used at required leaching factor, the salts in the soil would not build up.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_salinity_control

    The salt concentration Cp can be taken as a part of the salt concentration of the soil in the unsaturated zone (Cu) giving: Cp = Le.Cu, where Le is the leaching efficiency. The leaching efficiency is often in the order of 0.7 to 0.8, [14] but in poorly structured, heavy clay soils it may be less.
