The objectives of this study were to (1) evaluate earthworm-induced leaching of water and salt from salt-affected agricultural soils with constant and fluctuating soil moisture conditions and (2) determine the effects of earthworms on the distribution of soil salt in casts, burrow walls, and surrounding soils responsible for salt leaching. Soils were kept in mesocosms at constant moisture (CM) or underwent one wet–dry process (WD). Each soil moisture treatment had three earthworm treatments, including (1) inoculation with high abundance of earthworms (five endogeic Aporrectodea trapezoides), (2) inoculation with moderate abundance of earthworms (three endogeic A. trapezoides), and (3) no earthworm treatment. The presence of earthworms significantly increased total leaching water volume compared to the same treatment without earthworms in both moisture treatments. In the treatment following the wet–dry process, more than 65 % of water leaching occurred during the rainfall event, whereas in the treatment following constant moisture, more than 60 % of water leaching occurred after the rainfall event. The presence of earthworms produced a higher salt amount in the leaching water than the same moisture treatment without earthworms, but only the low number of earthworms (three endogeic A. trapezoides) caused a significantly higher total amount of leached salt than the same moisture treatment without earthworms. The percentage of leached salt in leaching water during the rainfall event ranged from 75.31 to 79.93 % in the wet–dry treatment and from 41.28 to 50.65 % in the constant moisture treatment. The wet–dry process significantly increased the total amount of leached salt from salt-affected agricultural soil compared to the constant moisture treatment when earthworms were present, which may be due to the significantly higher electrical conductivity of saturation extract (EC_e) of earthworm casts than those of burrow walls and surrounding soils in the 0- to 10-cm soil layer.
