Özet

Production of seedless raisins is extremely important in Aegean Region in Turkey. The Plain of Alasehir in province of Manisa in Aegean Region is extremely important for seedless raisin production since 25% of the seedless raisin has been grown in this area. The irrigation water samples were collected from 13 different water distribution locations in the Plain of Alasehir. Results showed that pH and EC (electrical conductivity) values were in a reasonable range except EC levels from two locations were slightly high. The vineyard irrigation water in the region was classified as type of C<inf>3</inf>S<inf>1</inf>. It was suggested that, the salt content might be monitored continuously since salinity might increase in the soil through the end of the irrigation season. The most common cations were Ca++ and Mg++, and anion was HCO<inf>3</inf>\ Trace elements and heavy metals were under the risk limits except Mn was high in three locations. Boron was high in nine sampling locations. Overall, irrigation waters in the Plain of Alasehir were suitable for vineyard irrigation as long as the contents of boron and salinity were continuously monitored. © by PSP.
