Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Chemistry and Environment (IJRCE) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
T[i]he aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of magnetic treatments on Tomato grown under saline irrigation conditions (Nile water, 1000, 3000, 6000, 9000 and 12000 ppm). In doing so, three replicates of pot experiment involving magnetically and non-magnetically treated soil were conducted. The experiment conducted under normal environmental conditions during summer season of 2009 at Faculty of Agricultural Farm, Ismailia, Egypt. The results show that the using of magnetic with saline water had the valuable effect on soil and plant. The electrical conductivity of the soil was decreased with using magnetic saline water in irrigation sandy soil. The improvement in plant growth parameters which reflected in yield per plant was increased until the treatment of 6000 ppm magnetic water. The analysis of the data collected during the study proved that there were statistically significant increases in plant growth and some chemical contents of Tomato plant. The results of the current study demonstrated that magnetic treatments improved fresh and dry weights of Tomato plant compared to control. It appears that utilization of magnetized water technology may be considered a promising technique to[/i] improve Tomato yield productivity. The results obtained also concluded that the use of magnetic techniques with low quality water is very important for irrigation without any expected problems in the soils and plant.

Influence of Brackish water aquaculture on Soil Salinisation
Brackish water aquaculture has been debated severely for its environmental consequences. Mushrooming of such farms on reclaimed mangrove lands and converted agricultural land leads to salinisation of agricultural fields...
