The '''Central Soil Salinity Research Institute''' ('''CSSRI''')<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.acronymfinder.com/CSSRI.html |title=CSSRI - Definition by AcronymFinder |publisher=Acronymfinder.com |access-date=2015-05-09}}</ref> is an autonomous institute of higher learning, established under the umbrella of [[Indian Council of Agricultural Research]] (ICAR) by the [[Ministry of Agriculture]], [[Government of India]] for advanced research in the field of [[soil sciences]]. The institute is located on Kachawa Road in [[Karnal]], in the state of [[Haryana]], {{cvt|125|km}} from the Indian capital of [[New Delhi]].

Central Soil Salinity Research Institute (CSSRI) had its origin in [[Hisar (city)|Hisar, Haryana]], on 1 March 1969, as per recommendations of an Indo-American team, employed to assist the [[Indian Council of Agricultural Research]] in developing a comprehensive [[water management]] program for India. However, by October 1969, the institute was shifted to its present premises in Karnal and a year later, the ''Central Rice Research Station'', [[Canning Town]], West Bengal was merged with CSSRI.

The institute has a satellite unit in Bharuch, which was originally started in Anand in 1989, but moved to [[Bharuch]] in 2003 and hosts the coordinating unit of AICRP on ''Management of Salt Affected Soils and Use of Saline Water in Agriculture'' with a network of eight research centres located in different agro ecological regions of the country at [[Agra]], Bapatala, [[Bikaner]], [[Gangawati]], [[Hisar (city)|Hisar]], [[Indore]], [[Kanpur]] and [[Tiruchirapalli]]. The coordinating unit of AICRP on Water Management was a part of CSSRI from early seventies till 1990 when it was moved to [[Rahuri]] in Maharashtra.

The main achievements of CSSRI may be listed as:
* Reclamation of [[alkaline]] soils with the addition of chemical amendments.<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web|title=Central Soil Salinity Research Institute — 1.

* Reclamation of [[Saline soil|saline]] soils through subsurface drainage.
* Development and release of salt tolerant crop varieties of [[rice]], [[wheat]] and [[Mustard (condiment)|mustard]].<ref name="autogenerated1"/>
* Reclamation of salt affected soils through salt tolerant trees.
* Development of for the salt affected areas of [[vertisols]] and coastal regions. The institute has reclaimed nearly {{convert|1.5|e6ha}} of salt affected land for productive use, producing approximately 15 million tons of food grains annually.<ref name="autogenerated1"/>
* Development of subsurface drainage technology for waterlogged saline soils. Reclamation has been completed on approximately {{convert|50,000|ha}} of land in Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and Karnataka.<ref name="autogenerated1"/>
* Replenishment of depleting [[water table]]s by artificial [[ground water]] recharge.

CSSRI manages an International Training Centre under an Indo-Dutch collaboration since 2001. It offers postgraduate-level programs in association with state agricultural universities (SAUs), [[Indian Institute of Technology]] (IIT) and other universities.<ref name="autogenerated1"/>
