Effect of magnetized saline water on soil and water amendment in trickle irrigation

Due to limited water resources, there is too much emphasis on the efficient use of present water resources and the use of waste water and saline and brackish water for irrigation. Therefore, for having a successful agriculture, it is necessary to the process come under the control of salinity. Magnetized water can be used for reclamation of water and soil. In this study the soil moisture and soil salinity around the emitter at different stage of irrigation have been investigated. The treatments including two treatments of irrigation water (magnetized water and non-magnetized water) as main treatments and three level of salinity including well water, saline waters 5 and 10 dS/m were a minor factor. Field experiment was performed as split split plot in randomized complete block with three replications. The results showed that irrigation with magnetized water as compared to normal irrigation, soil moisture increased in different distances from the emitter. Also, irrigation with magnetized water caused reduction of 31 percent of soil electrical conductivity than normal irrigation. The magnetized irrigation saving water use and solved the soil salinity problem, recommended for use in agriculture.
