But that is not all that matters. The real world is a more complicated place, as I shall explain in a moment. And that is why a floating exchange rate regime makes sense for Canada. The case typically made for a floating rate for Canada is that it gives us the chance to run an independent monetary policy. That is true.
Over-irrigation of the soil takes out all of the embedded nutrients and makes the soil fallow. In addition, it can lead to erosion and runoff, which can make the ground less stable and less able to hold fruits, vegetables, and plants.
1. SALINIZATION. Salinization refers to a build up of salts in soil, eventually to toxic levels for plants. (3,000 - 6,000 ppm salt results in trouble for most cultivated plants.) Salt in soils decreases the osmotic potential of the soil so that plants can't take up water from it. When soils are salty, the soil has greater concentrations of solute than does the root, so plants can't get water from soil.
