The layout of the experiment was a splitplot design, with the main plots arranged in a randomized complete blocks design with three replicates. Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L) plants cultivar Spunta, as a tuber crop. Three application methods of the used organic amendments were applying. These methods were: soil application (through drip irrigation \"Drip\"), foliar spray \"Spray\" and the alternative between them \"Spray/Drip\". The application methods of \"Spray/Drip\" was carried out by applying half amount of each organic amendments applying as soil application and the other 50% was applied as foliar spray).

The study area is located in the Middle of Nile Delta between latitudes 300 45′ to 300 50′ N and longitudes 310 00′ to 310 05′ E, covering an area of about 78.97 km2 (18802.30 fed.). The area has many different irrigation water sources namely, Nile water, agricultural drainage water, waste and sewage water canals. Many industrial factories discharge their waste fluids and remnants into these different canals which intermixed with their waters and could be used for irrigation of the surrounded agricultural land in the area. Ten soil profiles were chosen including: three representing the soils use the fresh Nile water, five representing the soils use the agricultural drainage water and two representing the soils use sewage water for irrigation. The land and site features are observed and registered. The soil profiles were dug, morphologically described, and then samples were collected representing the subsequent layers in each profile for integrated physical and chemical analyses. Also, water samples were collected from the different irrigation water resources for chemical analyses. The studied area has almost flat topography with deep soil profiles and freely well drained. These soils have swelling clay loam to clay texture with moderate medium to coarse angular blocky structure and mostly grayish brown color. There are no clear differences in the morphological characteristics of the studied soils irrigated with different kinds of irrigation waters. The physiochemical properties revealed that, the studied soils are moderately alkaline and nonto slightly saline. All of the soils using Nile water haven’t sodicity effect. While, most of those using drainage or sewage water have moderate sodicity effect. Organic matter (OM) is almost low and decreases with depth. The soils are slightly to moderately calcareous. Some soils from those irrigated with drainage or sewage water have relatively moderate OM and CaCO3 contents especially in the surface layers besides relatively high ESP. This could be ascribed to the interaction of factorial waste fluids and remnants in the irrigation water used for these soils. Most of the studied soil profiles haven't any diagnostic horizons, therefore they were classified under Entisols order. Some soils from those irrigated with agricultural drainage water or sewage water seem to have Natric horizons and classified under Aridisols up to sub great group level. The land capability evaluation using ASLE model indicated that, all of the studied soils are considered as a good class (C2). The quality evaluation of irrigation water samples indicates that, there is a slight restriction upon using the drainage and sewage waters for sensitive crops.","PeriodicalId":355116,"journal":{"name":"Menoufia Journal of Soil Science","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122061789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To research the impact of deficit irrigation, nitrogen fertilization and soil mulching on the productivity of maize water. Then, using such results, the AquaCrop model was validated by various statistical indicators such as determination coefficient(R 2 ), normalized root means square error (NRMSE), degree of agreement (D) and efficiency (E). Results showed that under different irrigation regimes, nitrogen fertilization levels and mulching application in the North Delta, AquaCrop software was able to simulate well the crop water productivity (WP). Where R2, NRMSE, D and E were respectively0.88,0.36, 0.98 and 0.99 percent under non-saline soil conditions (Sakha location) values. While, under saline soil conditions, such values were 0.85, 16.5, 0.62 and 0.87 % for R 2 , NRMSE, D and E respectively. Data also, showed that, under non saline soil, the highest value of WP was obtained by irrigation at 40 days after post planting irrigation, then irrigation at 80 % depletion from soil available water, non-limiting nitrogen fertilization and using plastic mulching. While, under saline soil conditions, irrigation at 30 days after post planting irrigation, then irrigation at 60 % depletion from soil available water, near optimal nitrogen fertilization and plastic mulching gave the best value of WP.","PeriodicalId":355116,"journal":{"name":"Menoufia Journal of Soil Science","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130971291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The irrigation water quality index (IWQI) was calculated in this research to classify surface water of some irrigation canals northwest of Nile delta, Egypt. For this purpose, 14 sites distributed within study area were selected to take water samples during October 2019. ArcGIS (10.4.1) spatial Analyst extension was used to produce high accuracy maps. The IWQI spatial distribution within the study area shows that, samples fell into four classes, low restriction (LR) moderate restriction (MR) High restriction (HR) severe restriction (SR) with an area 178,138, 92 and 249, Km2 respectively. The area of SR water quality would be sited in the northeast and southwest in resultant of increase the EC, SAR, (Na+) and (Cl-) ions in this direction. The descending order of water restriction use in the study area is SR˃ LR˃ MR ˃ HR.  Thus, most of surface water in the study area (73%) may avoided its use for irrigation under ordinary conditions.
