Abstract
This scientific article aims to summarize the most important measurements of the quality of water for use in irrigation of various crops. The goal is to help professionals and researchers in the soil, water and environment field in the selection of appropriate alternatives to face potential problems that may occur because the use of low quality water in irrigation, which may adversely affect the characteristics of the soil and thus reduce productivity and quality of crops cultivated .The most important measurements, which are summarized in this article includes measurements of salinity risk, measurements the risks of both of soil sodicity and alkalinity ,soil permeability for water quality and the specific hazards of some toxic ions .
