ABSTRACT
As water becomes more limited, there is increasing use of saline waters for irrigation that were previously considered unsuitable. Rhoades, Kandiah, and Marshali[1]
classified saline waters as shown in Table 1. Electrical conductivity is a convenient and practical method for classifying saline waters because there is a direct relationship between the salt content of the water and the conductance of an electrical current through water containing salts. Electrical conductivity values are expressed in siemens (S) at a standard temperature of 25C.
