Magnetic water treatment (MWT) techniques have shown promising potentials in different areas specially agriculture. Safety, compatibility and simplicity, environmentally friendliness, low operating cost and not proven harmful effects are the main advantages of electromagnetic field (EMF) over conventional methods for water treatment. Magnetized or magnetic water (MW) possesses unique physical and chemical characteristics making it a multi-purpose compound with potential benefits in medical treatment, industrial as well as environmental applications. The unique physical and electrochemical characteristics of MW have attracted research interests to develop different devices and techniques in agricultural and environmental applications. Improvements of irrigation water quality and quantity, crop yields and quality, soil improvement and water saving are some of the reported benefits of MWT in agriculture. In addition, magnetic field treatments have shown beneficial effects on the germination of seeds, plant growth and development, the ripening and yield of field crops. The main challenge in applications of MW in agriculture is efficient integrating of irrigation components, designing suitable pumps compatible with technical and field requirements of magnetic MWT systems. The present study reviews the applications of MW in agricultures. The practical challenges in using MW as well as future perspective are discussed.

“…The effect of magnetic fields seems extraordinary [58][59][60][61], its "magnetic memory" has been investigated [62]. The effect of magnetic fields on the formation of scale in boilers has been established in a huge amount of data (see [63][64][65] and references quoted therein).…”

Abstract:In 1893 Sir William Armstrong placed a cotton thread between two wine glasses filled with chemically pure water. After applying a high voltage, a watery connection formed, and after some time, the cotton thread was pulled into one of the glasses, leaving a rope of water suspended between the two glasses. Although being a very simple experiment, it is of special interest since it comprises a number of phenomena currently tackled in modern water science like electrolysis-less charge transport and nanobubbles. This work gives some background information about water research in general and describes the water bridge phenomenon from the viewpoint of different fields such as electrohydrodynamics and quantum field theory. It is shown that the investigation of the floating water bridge led to new discoveries about water, both in the macroscopic and microscopic realm -but these were merely "hidden" in that sense that they only become evident upon application of electric fields.

“…Bergsrud and Linn (1990) reported an increase in growth of calves and sheep and a decrease in carcass fat of sheep that received magnetized water. In addition, Lin and Yotvat (1989) showed that milk yield increased when dairy cattle drank magnetized water. El-Hanoun et al (2013) observed an improvement in productive and reproductive performance of doe rabbits, and Attia et al (2015) observed an improvement in buck rabbit performance after receiving magnetized drinking water.…”

El agua de bebida magnetizada mejora la productividad y los parámetros sanguíneos en gansos A água magnetizada melhora a produtividade e os parâmetros sanguíneos em gansos AbstractBackground: Quality of drinking water is an issue that imposes limits on animal farming. Improving water quality can be a solution to animal farming and to the enhancement of animal production in areas with limited water supplies. Objective: To evaluate the eff ect of water quality and magnetized water on productivity and blood parameters of Egyptian geese. Methods: One hundred and eight (108) Egyptian geese were randomly distributed among four water treatments in a 2×2 factorial design that included two types of water (tap water and well water) and exposure or non-exposure to magnetized tap water and magnetized well water. Results: Well water was of poor quality. Geese consuming this water exhibited lower productive and reproductive performance, lower progesterone and estrogen levels, impaired renal and liver functions and lower total antioxidant capacity. Their eggs had lower weight, lower yolk percentage and reduced shell thicknesses. The magnetic treatment improved the quality of both types of water, with a greater eff ect on well water. Magnetized water increased water consumption and performance of geese, along with improved renal and liver functions, reproductive hormones, and antioxidant status. Magnetized water improved growth performance, dressing percentage of
