“…of leaf in control of five plants per pot was 7.6.Fresh and dry weights of 10 plants per pot were observed among all treatments ranging from 5.60 to 18.40 g and 0.54 to 1.50 g, respectively with an average of 10.11 and 1.01 g, respectively and 12.20 g and 1.50 g, respectively, in control. Similar result was also observed in tomato and cucumber plants (Qaryouti et al, 2015).Subsequently, these authors suggested that the reclaimed river polluted water can replace fresh water in irrigation of vegetables during dry season but the water quality is continuously monitored to avoid heavy metal accumulation and microbial contamination.…”

The present study was carried out to assess the levels of different heavy metals like chromium (Cr), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn) and manganese (Mn) on red amaranth vegetable irrigated with polluted river water. Atomic Absorption Spectrometer was used for analyzing the heavy metals in the samples. The results indicated a substantial build-up of heavy metals accumulation in red amaranth irrigated with polluted river water. The ranges of various metals in red amaranth samples irrigated with polluted river water were 0.450.93, 0.1470.175, 42.33479.73, 1.3112.04, 3.7135.11 and 10.9142.9 ?g g-1 for Cr, Pb, Fe, Cu, Zn and Mn, respectively. Cadmium concentration was below the detection limit (0.01 ?g g-1) of the method used in the analysis. However, the regular monitoring of levels of these metals from effluents and sewage, in vegetables and in other food materials is essential to prevent excessive build-up of these metals in the food chain. In general, our results indicated that using polluted river water had no significant variation in growth and yield of red amaranth from the crops irrigated with fresh water.Res. Agric., Livest.

“…There was a high potential for nutrients recovery with 49% for N and 83% for P. However, due to the legislation and user inclusivity, the potential decreased to 3.4% for N and 7.4% for P. Qaryouti et. al., (2015) studied the use of raw waste water (RWW) from food industry on soil fertility, yield quantity and quality of greenhouse cucumber and tomato.…”

“…Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) is a vegetable crop grown worldwide, which ranks third in global vegetable production [1]. Its global production, which was over 159 million tons in 2011 [2] dropped to 27.3 metric tons, according to the Global Tomato Industry Report in 2018, and 37.5 million metric tons in 2019 [3].…”

“…Although chemical fertilizers can improve crop yield, they are most often not readily available and expensive [8]. This has brought about increased advocacy for alternative sources of nutrients in infertile soils such as recycling of organic-based wastewater for crop production [1,[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

Recycling of organic-based wastewater for crop production has received worldwide acceptability as a promising alternative to fertilizer use. Hence, this research evaluated growth, yield and nutritional quality of tomato and sweet pepper irrigated with abattoir wastewater (AWW) with the aim of assessing recycling liquid effluent from slaughterhouses for crop production. Each vegetable was cultivated in experimental pots irrigated with 0 (control), 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100% AWW. In tomato, AWW improved plant height, number of branches and leaves, and relative growth rate (RGR) with the maximum values recorded at 100% AWW. Root and shoot dry mass, total biomass and root/shoot ratio were also increased in plants treated with undiluted AWW. In sweet pepper, values of plant height, number of leaves and branches, root length and RGR were higher under AWW treatments than the control with peak values recorded at 100% concentration. The root mass of sweet pepper was increased but the root/shoot ratio was reduced at all AWW concentrations with the highest impact found when AWW was not diluted. While AWW resulted in an increased number of fruits in both crops with the best performance when undiluted, the differences with control were only significant in tomato. Fresh and dry mass of fruit was also significantly increased by AWW in both crops with the highest values recorded at 100% concentration. AWW increased fruit nutrient and heavy metal contents of both vegetables but this increase was nonsignificant compared to control. In conclusion, the application of 20-80% AWW is capable of increasing tomato and sweet pepper production but growing them with undiluted AWW irrigation was the most effective alternative source of fertilizers for improved growth, yield and nutritional quality of vegetables.
