Formation of water-salt regime of soils under long-term irrigation of municipal wastewater in Egypt

The water and salt regimes of alluvial soils of lacustrine origin, and gray-brown desert soil, located in the northern part of Egypt. We consider the soil moisture regime and its formation during irrigation wastewater. Established irrigation norm for the cultivation of maize for green fodder. The processes of salinization of alluvial soils and gray-brown desert soil proved that long-term wastewater irrigation enhances the processes of colonization and saline soils when irrigated with river and groundwater into being the medium of saline.
