Reasonably using reclaimed water (RW) for irrigation can help to alleviate scarcity, while also providing both environmental and economic benefits. However, there is limited information regarding the potential impact of RW on nutrients saline–alkali soils their microbial communities. This study investigates effects soil properties communities a 16S rRNA sequence analysis. The results show that pH electrical conductivity (EC) are significantly lower in treatment (p < 0.05). Compared was not irrigated with (CK), EC value decreased by 42.15–45.76%, 0–20 cm 40–60 depth. exhibited significant increase abundance Actinobacteria (32.32–33.42%), Chloroflexi (7.63–15.79%), Firmicutes (9.27–10.42%), Ascomycota (89.85–95.95%). Bacterial richness diversity were enhanced after At genus level, dominant bacterial genera included Bacillus, Penicillium, Aspergillus, Talaromyces. Differences community observed between two treatments among depths within each A network analysis indicated internal relationships become more complex following irrigation, whereas connections fungal tend simplified. redundancy (RDA) showed directly influenced EC, total nitrogen (TN), available potassium (AK).

Irrigation water quality is important to sustain agricultural productivity. The primary irrigation sources in Al-Ahsa Oasis, KSA, are groundwater wells, mixed with treated wastewater and drainage. This study sought evaluate Oasis the aid of using indices (IWQIs). One hundred forty-eight different samples were collected from various resources throughout Oasis. investigated physiochemical characteristics include pH, temperature, TDS, EC, turbidity, free chlorine, total hardness, cations (Na, K, Ca, Mg), anions (Cl, CO3, HCO3, SO4), organic matter (DO, BOD, COD), nutrients (NH4, NO3, PO4). IWQIs used this salinity hazard, sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), Kelly’s (KR), soluble percentage (SSP), Permeability index (PI), residual carbonate (RSC), magnesium hazard (MH). results indicated that acceptable for irrigation. Spatial variations associated resources. For instance, drainage has highest values cations, anions, whereas lowest reported wastewater, reflecting good efficiency treatment plants. IWQI revealed 4.1% 62.1% considered (class III) satisfactory IV) irrigation, respectively, 33.8% fall within severe restrictions. Moreover, 79.7% classified have high very hazards (C3, C4) medium (S2, S3). Regular monitoring assessment plant factors achieving sustainability reuse consequently food security.

In 2020, the European Commission (EC) defined a legal requirement for water reuse agricultural purposes in Union (EU). EU Regulation (2020/741) on minimum requirements should mobilize member states to implement solutions use of reclaimed water. This paper aims examine state implementation provisions this at time its entry into force. Based desk research, status countries, with particular emphasis issues quality and applications, was analyzed. The regulating varies significantly across EU’s countries. Central Eastern (e.g., Poland, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia) countries are no rush regulate agriculture; some will take advantage derogation gain more consider it. Southern Greece, Italy, France, Spain) most advanced have experience practical implementations gained before introduced. However, they different control parameters. For now, Portugal, Spain fully implemented EC (2020/741); Belgium, Hungary, Italy partially it; Malta has it practically but not formally; Cyprus distributed regulations. It be pointed out that potential is significant, process needed due climate change consequences Europe’s resources. Therefore, further initiatives expected, including by other coming decades.

In the Apulia region (Southern Italy), issue of water scarcity is escalating, making wastewater reclamation and reuse crucial options for promoting sustainable development Despite substantial financial investments, practical adoption agricultural irrigation remains constrained. Using a quantitative SWOT framework, we analyzed market, social produc-related factors impacting reuse. A questionnaire with 23 out 30 expert stakeholders, including researchers, public administration officials, utility members, farmers, en gineers, was used to evaluate significance each aspect identified in analysis.The key drivers wastewater-reuse-based economy include improved availability during drought, commitment circular economy, existing successful projects. Conversely, obstacles encompass lack storage basins storing between seasons synchronize production crop needs, inadequate political dedication oversee groundwater withdrawals, difficulties controlling bureaucratic demands arising from stringent regulation. Underpinned by recently enacted EU Water Reuse Regulation, addressing scarcity, mitigating aquifer over-exploitation, achieving objectives related economy. However, moving forward, an updated governance framework integrating continuous monitoring, active stakeholder engagement, investments intermediate facilities imperative effective This research provides novel empirical evidence expands upon studies on barriers opportunities reclaimed Mediterranean context regions facing similar challenges. The findings can serve as valuable reference future this field.
