Abstract | ||||
It is found that all River Nile and canals water samples are suitable for all kinds of fruits, vegetables and field crops, where EC values are (< 4) m mhos/cm, while the rest of samples (mixed water samples) are unsuitable for irrigating any type of crops, since their salinities are over (16) mmhos/cm. The study indicated that, all River Nile and canals water samples can be classified as water of the first grade (class I) while mixed water samples can be classified as water of the third grade (class III) of irrigation water. | ||||
