Abstract
Due to the scarce water resources present at the moment, other water resources need to be explored for irrigation. Salinity is one of the major problems that crops using this type of resources must face, mainly affecting yields, but also having an effect on soil quality. In order to mitigate both, Accudo®, a biostimulant composed of microorganisms, was applied in this study. Despite observing a significant increase in soil electrical conductivity, which caused a reduction in urease activity, biostimulation increased this enzyme activity, mitigating the effects that salinity caused on the soil and allowing crops to be grown with non-conventional water resources, in a more sustainable way.
