N2  - Saturated paste (SP) and 1:1 soil: water extractions are commonly used to assess soil salinity and ion concentrations in laboratory. Despite, the differences In results between the two methods, many soil salinity samples are analyzed using a 1:1 extract because of simple, rapid, low-cost and well handing procedure for screening problems of soil salinity in different sites. The aims of the present study are to predict the electrical conductivity (EC) and Na⁺², Ca²⁺ ,Mg²⁺ and CΓ concentrations for the soil saturation paste extract by means of 1:1 soil: water extract data using simple regression equations. This study examined these relationships using 180 samples from agricultural soils developed from lacustrine deposits at El-Bosaily Village south of Idko Lake
