Abstract A 2-year study (2004 and 2005) was conducted where gypsum was applied to four peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) cultivars and irrigated with subsurface drip to determine pod yield and mineral concentration of peanut plants and kernels. Gypsum rates were none, 560 and 1120 kg/ha. Peanut cultivars were C99R, Georgia Green (GG), NCV-11 (NCV), and GA-O2C (O2C). Irrigation was applied daily with subsurface drip irrigation except when precipitation exceeded the estimated daily water requirement. Average soil Ca and S concentrations increased as gypsum was applied, 5% and 20%, respectively, compared with the non-treated control. The average soil calcium to potassium (Ca∶K) ratio increased to 9.8∶1 compared with 7.6∶1 prior to applying calcium. When averaged across calcium rates, peanut leaves had 3 and 14 times higher calcium and 1.4 times higher S concentrations compared with pegs and pods, respectively. The cultivars GG and NCV had the same pod yield. Cultivars C99R and O2C had the same yield as NCV but were less than GG. Germination rates were higher when gypsum was added compared to the non-treated control and with cultivars C99R and O2C. There was no difference in vigor by gypsum application rate. Kernel Ca concentration was higher with the addition of gypsum compared to the non-treated control. Cold test germination seed vigor increased with C99R and O2C compared with GG and NCV.

Subsurface Drip

A critical objective for any wastewater reuse programme is to minimise health and environmental hazard. When applying wastewater to soil–plant systems, it is to be noted that the passage of water through the soil considerably reduces the number of microorganisms carried by the reclaimed wastewater. Factors that affect survival include number and type of microorganisms, soil organic matter content, temperature, moisture, pH, rainfall, sunlight, protection provided by foliage and antagonism by soil microflora. The purpose of this work was to examine the behaviour of fecal pollution indicators in a soil irrigated with treated wastewater under onsurface and subsurface drip irrigation. The experiment was conducted in a vineyard located at a commercial farm near the City of Arad (Israel). Wastewater and soil samples were monitored during the irrigation period and examined for fecal coliforms, somatic and F+ coliphages and helminth eggs. Physico-chemical parameters were controlled in order to determine their relationship with removal of microorganisms. The results showed high reduction of the concentration of microorganisms when wastewater moves through the soil; and a good correlation between the reduction of fecal pollution indicators and moisture content, organic matter concentration and pH. The application of secondary treated domestic wastewater in this specific soil and under these irrigation systems affect the survival of microorganisms, thus reducing the health and environmental risk.
