Abstract : Water samples were taken from 18 chosen sites of the studying area in July 2010, then the samples were analyzed for some physical and chemical properties. Some water qualities were determined as SAR, PS, pH, EC, RSC, adj SAR and TDS. Accordingly, the water samples were evaluated and classified to determined their capability to be used for irrigation as suggested by international standards. According to USDA salinity lab., The results showed that the water classes ranged between C4S1and C3S1 that to say they are highly saline to very saline water with less sodium content, meanwhile TDS values up to TGPC system 1995 these water samples are less saline. In according to Follet and Sultanpor 2001, these samples will cause high to medium hazards to the plants and will also cause soil salinity, because of their high content of chloride . | ||
