Abstract

According to the conducted research it has been found out that the direction and intensity of water and salt regimes in the irrigated land areas of the Ararat valley are related to the ground water levels, mineralization, crops᾿ species composition and to the irrigation factors. Under conditions of high level of ground water (<1.75 m) some salt accumulation is observed in the mid and surface soil strata, which can lead to the decline of soil fertility and crops productivity. Hence, it is recommended to implement irrigation and leaching activities in spring and autumn seasons along the mentioned land areas increasing the irrigation rate in 1.5 times.
