An experiment was conducted during 2011 to study the quality of irrigation water from Deoni tahsil of Latur district. Water samples were assessed for pH, EC, boron and Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR), Residual Sodium Carbonates (RSC). The boron values ranged from 0.08 to 1.8 ppm. in May while from 0.03 to 1.32 ppm in October. Similarly SAR ranged from 0.62 to 13.07 and 0.25 to 12.14 in the months of May and October respectively. The RSC of water ranged from -1.4 to 1.0 me L−1.
