Abstract
In the quest for understanding the suitability of borewell groundwater for irrigation purposes in Hiriyur Taluk, Chitradurga District, we embarked on a comprehensive assessment of key physico-chemical parameters. Our study involved the collection and analysis of thirty water samples, drawn from both banana leaf margin-affected and their healthier counterparts within the taluk. These samples were meticulously scrutinized for pH levels, electrical conductivity (EC), calcium, magnesium, sulphate, nitrate, Exchangable sodium percentage (ESP), chloride, residual sodium carbonate (RSC) and sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), all vital components in the evaluation of irrigation water quality. The findings from this study not only underscore the importance of assessing and understanding these parameters but also advocate for proactive measures in promoting the development of borewell groundwater for sustainable and productive irrigation practices within the region.
