Which requires of us as researchers and specialists in this regard to find all the traditional methods and the process to raise the level of food production in the province، this requires increased attention to areas of land which produces food for the main land by reclaiming new land added to the area under cultivation. From this point of attracting our attention reclamation of desert lands in the province because they represent a vast area of land in Basra، which is the territory of a few rain and many of which are not cultivated agriculture organization. The study is the contribution of simple to treat the problems of desert land located in the province، as well as the use of technology and the various methods that contribute to the treatment of these problems as well as from the study is a guide to action ideal for farmers، farmers and researchers in the field of agriculture، soil، geomorphology، hydrology، a field experiment could be used in the field of development local to the province of Basra، dear. Turning to study land-based sources in the province of Basra، was to clarify the properties of salt affected land. As well as find detailed three types of the mainland in the study area (land limestone، clay، and soil gypsum) and the properties of each type in addition to a plan by researcher mechanisms gradient within the field work to reclaim land affected by desertification، as well as the land barren abandoned. As well as develop a model to work the fields of a section of the ground and then selected according to quality standards process to work.
