Description Present study entitled, “Characterisation of ground water quality of
Nissing and Asandh blocks of district Karnal, Haryana” and to assess the
effect of different quality waters on physico-chemical properties of soils in
respective blocks, was under taken. With the objective in view 407 and 357
tube-well water samples from 46 villages of Asandh and 50 villages of Nissing
block respectively were collected. On the basis of water analysis, soil samples
from Asandh and Nissing blocks were collected and analyzed for their
physical and chemical properties.
pH, EC, SAR and RSC in irrigation waters of Asandh varied from
7.15-9.2, 0.48-6.52 dSm-1, 0.26-19.86 (m mol l-1)½ and Nil-18.1 ml l-1
respectively. Likewise corresponding values of water quality varied from
7.2-9.1, 0.48-4.19 dSm-1, 1.05-19.86 (m mole l-1)½ and Nil-18.0 me l-1
respectively, in Nissing block. Dominant cation was sodium followed by
magnesium and calcium. Likewise, in case of anions, bicarbonate was the
dominant anion followed by chloride and sulphate upto EC 3dSm-1 and after
EC range between 3-4 dSm-1 and above the trend was Cl- > SO42- >HCO3-
>CO32- type water in Asandh block. In Nissing block, bicarbonates were the
dominant anion followed by chloride and sulphate upto EC range 2-3 dSm-1 ,
in EC range 3-4 dSm-1 HCO3- > SO42- > Cl- > CO32- type waters and after
EC 4 dSm-1 the trend was Cl- > HCO3- > SO42- > CO32- type water in
respect of anions. RSC was observed only in tube-well waters having EC upto
3 and 4 dSm-1 respectively in Asandh and Nissing blocks and subsequent EC
range of water did not show presence of RSC. In both Asandh and Nissing
blocks maximum number of underground water samples (185 and 195) had
EC between 1 and 2 dSm-1 and with the increase in EC, number of tube-well
water samples decreased, under various range. As per Manchanda
classification 49.4, 18.7, 0, 24.6 and 7.3 per cent waters of Asandh block
were classified under good, marginal, saline, sodic and saline-sodic
categories, respectively. Likewise 53.5, 6.4, 0.6, 38.7 and 0.8 per cent of the
respective underground waters were found in the corresponding category in
Nissing block. As per AICRP (1989) classification 35.63, 19.9, 5.41, 2.46,
15.48, 15.97 and 5.15 per cent waters of Asandh block were classified under
good, marginally saline, saline, high SAR saline, marginally alkali, alkali and
highly alkali categories, respectively. Likewise 45.7, 8.7, 0.3, 0.6, 20.2, 19.2
and 5.3 per cent of the respective underground waters were found in the
corresponding categories in Nissing block. The use of poor quality water
resulted salt accumulation in both the surface (0-15 cm) and sub surface
(15-30 cm) layers. Mostly highest ECe and SARe were observed in the upper
layer (0-15 cm) of soil.
