This is especially the case <br />for on-farm improvements. <br />Because on-farm improvements and lateral. linings are <br />cost-effective in all of the irrigated areas which were <br />examined in this analysis, it is recommended that the <br />list of areas included in PL 93-320 be expanded. It <br />appears that these basic on-farm improvements should be <br />implemented in all of the agricultural areas as the <br />initial most cost-effective salinity control program. <br />The Soil Conservation Service, the Extension Service <br />and the other technical agencies involved in salinity <br />control should make a long-term commitment of adequate <br />technical assistance to the growers. The on-going work <br />in the Grand Valley clearly indicates the need for this <br />type of program. It will be necessary to recruit and <br />specially train personnel for this type of activity. <br />On-farm improvement and lateral lining programs con- <br />sistent with selected levels of a basin-wide salinity <br />control policy should be started as soon as possible in <br />all of the irrigated areas. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />2. <br /> <br />3. <br /> <br />4. <br /> <br />, <br />'i._ <br />
