Objectives
|
1- To establish Middle East regional guideline for use of brackish water for economic crops grown under salt affected soil.
2- To dewlap a set of management practices for the use of bios lids and farm waste and production of biogas.
3- To develop a monitoring system of bio- chemical properties for low quality water stream.
4- To assess the soci-economic impact of using brackish water in irrigation and biosolids as organic fertilizers

Achievements
|
1- Brackish water can be used for irrigation of crops without significant reduction in yield while blended drainage water can be used in salt tolerant crop production.
2- Using alternative irrigation under drip irrigation can minimize the adverse affects of marginal water in soil, plant pollution and soil salinity build up and save about soil tram frat wate
