Abstract
The leaching of salts through facilitating the permeability process is very important for irrigation systems planning. The negative effect of soil compaction on plant growth is an integration of multidirectional influences, such as the reduction of aeration to the roots. This research was done at Babolsar city, Mazandaran province, Iran to investigate the effect of magnetized water and different irrigation water salinity treatments on cumulative and final infiltration rate and soil electrical conductivity. The experimental treatments include magnetized and non-magnetized irrigation water, different level of irrigation water salinity (0.58 dSm-1, 6.5 dSm-1, and 13 dSm-1) and variable soil texture (loamy-sand, loam, and clay). The factorial experiment was conducted with a complete randomized block design with three replications. Magnetized water was obtained by passing the water via a strong magnetic field installed on the irrigation pipeline. The results exposed that the effects of soil texture and magnetized irrigation water on the final infiltration rate and cumulative infiltration were significant (P
Highlights
Infiltration is the downward movement of water into the soil
Variance analysis displayed that the effects of soil texture, irrigation water salinity, and magnetized water on the final rate of infiltration and cumulative infiltration were significant at 1% probability level
There was no significant effect in irrigation water salinity treatment on the final infiltration rate and cumulative infiltration
Summary
Infiltration is the downward movement of water into the soil. Understanding the influential factors and processes governing water infiltration in the soil is of special importance because by recognizing these factors, it is possible to examine the optimal water management in farms and by achieving sufficient knowledge in this field, better environmental programs Executed (Chen et al, 2018; Gelaye et al, 2019; Liu et al, 2020). The infiltration has an effective role in the hydrologic cycle, regional ecology, runoff rate, soil erosion and degradation, solute transport, and groundwater pollution (Ajwa et al, 2006; Fentaw et al, 2018). Understanding the infiltration process is necessary for planning and management in irrigation systems (Radcliffe and Rasmussen, 2000; Khoshravesh et al, 2011; Javadinejad et al, 2019). In this study, the combination of magnetized water and salinity on soil permeability will be investigated
