Abstract/Contents:"Recycled water as a strategy for coping with shortages and/or the rising cost of fresh water maybe a viable means in arid and semi-arid regions and in highly populated metropolitan areas. Public's slow, but increasing, acceptance of use of treated municipal sewage water to irrigate plants, including landscape plants, has made this option a reality. In the future, parks, golf courses, cemeteries, and other venues of non-food, urban horticulture will be better able to compete for reclaimed sewage water than for fresh water. Although ultimate users of recycled water will be dictated by local laws, use of this water on non-food planting leaves more fresh irrigation water for food plants. Factors affecting the decision to use recycled water for landscape irrigation include: human health considerations, seasonal and annual variations in water quality, soil conditions, reclaimed waters dissolved salts and nutrient content, as well as potential water conservation."
