Abstract: The study area is located around the City of
Hilla (Babylon Governorate), 100 km South of Baghdad
City, between longitude (44°35 30-44°36 43) E and
latitudes (32°29 42-32°29 37) N five different wells
(hand dig) chosen from some villages near from Al-Hilla
city center, this wells recharged from the rivers near from
them this small rivers take their water from Shatt Al-Hilla.
To examine the water of wells for irrigation purposes, we
found the total dissolved solid salt TDS within shallow
groundwater system are high concentrations and the
salinity of water samples of study area are of class
(Primary drainage water and groundwater), the
concentrations of the examined chemical ions (Mg2+, Na+,K+,-, HCO3- and CO3-) for all examined samples within
the studied area, the CO3- concentrations in all the water
samples (are zero). After the chemical tests for all the
samples we found the water sample in the study area
suitable for irrigation purpose, depend on SAR, Na% and
RSC value.
