The use of treated effluent for agricultural irrigation in the Bottelary River area: Effluent quality, farmers perception and potential extent
Magister Scientiae - MSc === The Bottelary River area is located in a Mediterranean climate region, where the agricultural sector plays an important role. During the dry summer season, there is not enough precipitation to meet the agricultural irrigation requirements. Some farmers extract river wate...
