摘要:Study was carried out to evaluate the major cation Chemistry, the factors controlling water composition,and suitability of water for irrigation. The problems of water quality have become more important than the quantity, asthe environmental problems are getting more serious in several parts of the world. A number of factors like geology,soil, effluents, sewage disposal and other environmental conditions in which the water happens to stay or move andinteract with, influences greatly on the groundwater quality of an area. The spatial maps show that the concentration ofthe chemical constituent in ground water varies spatially and temporarily. Sodium is the most dominant cation with ClandHCO3- are the dominant anions.SAR values indicated thatboth pre and post monsoons watersamples are excellent(S1) for irrigation,while electrical conductivity values classified these ground water, respectively under high salinewater consist (C3) category.Water quality data are utilized in the present study for the analysis of groundwaterchemistry of year 2014, Pre-monsoon(July) and 2014, post-monsoon(December) seasons. Water quality data used inthe analysis include Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Alkalinity (TA), Total Hardness (TH), Calcium, Magnesium,Sodium, Potassium, Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR) Sodium and Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC).
