Abstract

The objective of the current study was demonstrate the effects of using subsurface drip irrigation systems with fresh Nile water and treated wastewater on the growth of Bermuda grass (Cynodon  dactylon) and some soil properties. To achieve these aims, a field experiment was carried out at the experimental farm of the Central laboratory for environmental quality Monitoring in Delta Barrage (El_Qanatir), Cairo, Egypt. The area of study was cultivated with Hybrid Bermuda grass and the experimental design was split-plot design with the source of irrigation water in the main plots i.e. treated wastewater and fresh Nile water and the irrigation systems in the sub-plots. The results reveal that treated wastewater can be used successfully with subsurface drip irrigation systems. The use of treated wastewater with drip irrigation systems increased the concentration of salt in soil profile. However, no harmful impacts were detected on the growing grass. Finally, application of treated wastewater by sub-surface drip irrigation system may be used safety from the point of view of the concentration of heavy metal.
