In order to\nguarantee its sustainable use, qualitative and quantitative evaluation is very\nmuch needed. Our study aimed to evaluate wells water quality, as main source\nfor irrigation, and its effect on soil salinity. The\nstudy was conducted during 2012 and 2013 in Alyaaroubiya province. Field\ninvestigation was undertaken in two stages, where soil and water samples from\n16 locations were collected, first and second stages included 7 and 9 locations\nrespectively. pH, EC and TDS, cations and anions were determined, in addition,\nwater quality indicators were calculated. Results showed that water salinity as\nwell as use restrictions were varied from sever to medium levels at different\nwells,\naccording to infiltration indicator there were no restrictions in the\nwells 1 and 2, slight ones in the wells 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. According to\nchloride poisoning, no restriction noticed in the well 8 and slight to\nmedium in the well 9, however rest of wells were suffered of high content of chloride\nwhere its concentrations varied between 12.9 and 97.2 mg\/l. It was recognized\nthat increasing of soil salinity was compatible with increasing of irrigated\nwater salinity especially in the zone 2, where salinity of the soil, irrigated\nfrom the well 16 of highest salinity of water (14.5\ndS\/m), reached 8.4 dS\/m. Dominated salts were chloride and\nsulfate of sodium, calcium and at lower rate magnesium, and less content of\nbicarbonate.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0<strong>Keywords<\/strong>: Groundwater, Water salinity, Soil salinity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full Paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/sjar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/v7n1p21.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rami Kaba(1) and Ahmad Majar*(2) (1).
