Comparative analysis of pomegranates harvested from an organic orchard and a conventional one irrigated with treated wastewater

Purpose: Nowadays, the problem of water scarcity increased due to the increase of aridity, which enhances the use of non-conventional waters. The irrigation with treated wastewater was primarly developed. Research method: In the present research, we compared the quality of pomegranate fruits harvest...

The irrigation with treated wastewater was primarly developed. Research method: In the present research, we compared the quality of pomegranate fruits harvested from two ‘Gabsi’ orchards managed according to two different cultural practices such as: organic (O) and conventional irrigated with treated wastewater (WW). We determine the soil and fruit characteristics. Findings: Results showed that the organic soil was richer in Fe, Mn and Mg; however, irrigated with WW was richer in Cu, Zn, and Cd with the absence of Ag and Ni in both soils. The analysis of fruits demonstrated that organic ones were richer in Cu, Zn and Mn. Mg content was similar in both fruits. Hg, Ni, Cd, and Fe were not present in fruits. The BCF of Cu and Zn were higher in organic fruits, contrary to Mg. Furthermore, the highest values of the SSC/TA ratio were recorded in organic fruits with no pathogenic contamination for both fruits. Limitations: No limitations were founded. Originality/Value: This study illustrates the possibility of treating wastewater in the irrigation of pomegranates without adverse effects.Soumaya DbaraMessaoud MarsUniversity of Birjandarticleheavy metalsnutrientsorganicpomegranatewastewaterAgricultureSENJournal of Horticulture and Postharvest Research, Vol 4, Iss Special Issue - Plant Nutrition in Horticulture, Pp 11-20 (2021)
