Abstract: The important physico-chemical parameters of surface and groundwater of Faridpur District were analysed for the criteria of irrigation water quality.18 water samples were collected in the monsoon season (June-September) from different areas of Faridpur District. The study revealed that temperature, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), soluble sodium percentage (SSP), residual sodium carbonate (RSC) and Kelly's ratio of waters were found within the permissible limits for irrigation purposes. Any initiative for surface and groundwater development for planned irrigation practices is highly encouraged (13). |
