Description:
The main objective of this project was to explore the recycling of stabilized pond effluent to grow crops for municipal beautification. The research encompassed pond effluent quality, irrigation site parameters, crop responses, renovation qualities of site and crops, insects and winter irrigation. Levels of wastewater application were 51, 76, and 102 mm per week. The solid-set, buried, automatic lateral-change irrigation system functioned well.
