“…A substantial part of renewable water resources available in Iran are consumed in the agricultural sector (Bijani and Hayati, 2015; Yazdanpanah et al , 2015; Salehi et al , 2018). Moreover, water resources are constantly being depleted given the increasing population growth as well as agricultural land‐use degradation and changes so that the issue of optimal consumption of water has further become of utmost importance.…”

“…As prescribed groundwater samples were treated with 1 N HCl to avoid any interference due to hydroxides/carbonates present in the sample. Turbidimetric method was used for SO 4 2− , and the absorbance was recorded at 420 nm wavelength using spectrophotometer [42]. The detection limits of the instruments for each of the groundwater quality parameter are provided in supplementary Table 1.…”

“…Groundwater is the largest and most reliable source of safe water supply across the globe, and it is widely used for human consumption, agriculture and industries activities. According to estimates approximately, one-third of the population across the globe rely on groundwater for drinking [1][2][3]; however, out of total groundwater use 65% is used for drinking, 20% is used for irrigation and livestock, and rest 15% is used for mining and industrial activities [3,4]. In recent past, rapid industrialization, unplanned urbanization, waste discharge and other demographic changes have increased the pressure on groundwater resources, both in terms of its quantity and quality [5][6][7].…”
