An attempt has been made to study the impact
of urban wastewater irrigation on summer paddy
productivity, varietal response and soil properties. Paddy
and soil samples were collected from selected peri-urban
villages of Bhubaneswar, India, from fields receiving contrast
irrigation sources (urban wastewater and river water) under
similar agro-climatic and socioeconomic conditions. Major
plant nutrients content were higher in wastewater irrigated
soils, whereas pH was lower. Wastewater irrigation increased
grain and straw yield. Concentrations of Zn, Fe, Cr, Mn and
Cu were higher in soil, grains and straw of paddy when
irrigated with wastewater. Response to wastewater irrigation
varied with paddy variety. The ANOVA with the inclusion of
pH as covariate revealed that the efficient management of
soil pH would increase grain yield of rice by 318 kg ha-1
.
Wastewater irrigation saved about $ 50 ha-1 towards the cost
of fertilizer for growing paddy.
