Abstract
The study was undertaken to know the quality of crops grown on wastewater in raver taluka of khandesh region throughout the year 2013-14. The experiment was performed by selecting brinjal (Solanum melongena) and were applied at recommended NPK dose of fertilizers for treatment. A pot culture experiment was conducted to study the soil characteristics with different percentage of dilution of waste water i.e. 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% respectively to know its impact on growth parameters of the Solanum melongena plant. The waste water of raver area which is used by the farmer for irrigation shows excessive BOD, COD and electrical conductivity. It is also known fact that, the waste water reuse is currently necessary, but the study shows the feasible management practices are needed in order to implement sustainable reuse of waste water and to contribute to the food security.
