<span>I will advise the farm manager not to use the sea water for irrigation as the sea water is of lower water potential than the roots of the wheat. If sea water is used to irrigate the fields, all wheat plants will die from dehydration as water will move out from the roots to the surrounding because a potential gradient is present between the root tissues and the soil.</span>
