Abstract :

The increasing water demand and water scarcity has increased the need for unconventional water, especially wastewater. In this research, the soil chemical properties under irrigation with sugar factory raw wastewater and water stress in a factorial experiment with a randomized complete block design with four replications (R) was carried out in a field experiment in Miandoab city during 2016-2017 and the treatments in this study were three treatments: well water (T1), sugar plant wastewater (T2), water and wastewater (87.5% water and 12.5% wastewater) (T3) combination with two full irrigation levels (L1) and 75% water stress (L2). that water stress and type of irrigation water had a significant effect on potassium, phosphorus, total nitrogen and salinity at 1% probability level and on acidity at 5% probability level. The highest amount of potassium in T2L2 and T3L1 treatments with 289 and 112 Kg was obtained. Also, The highest amount of acidity in T2L1 and T2L2 treatments with 7.5 and 6.9 was observed. Originally, it can be stated that Irrigation with Sugar Factory Raw Wastewater approximately improves soil chemical properties and due to the water resources scarcity, an appropriate replacement for irrigation of Barely fields is recommended.
