Use of Non-Conventional Water in the Production of Safe Fodder Crops


Abstract in English

An experiment was conducted for two seasons 2015 -2016, to study the effect of treated waste water (TWW) on some fodder crops productivity at Salamieh Research Center (GCSAR), on triticale and sesbania crops within crop rotation. This experiment was conducted with collaboration between (ACSAD) and (GCSAR). The experimental design was split plot design with three replicates, using drip irrigation (DI) and surface irrigation (SI) systems with two treatments namely fresh water (FW) and (TWW). Soil and water were analyzed before cultivation.
