dc.description.abstractThis study was aimed to assess status of boron pollution, identification of agricultural soils at risk in Seydisuyu Watershed of Western Turkey, which has rich B deposits. The maps of borom pollution for the soils were produced using GIS. Boron concentrations in the irrigated soils varied widely, from 0.08 to 3.40 mg kg(-1) depending on the sampled fields and soil depths. The highest boron concentration was found in the top layer of soil (0-30 cm) for all sampled fields. This revealed that the top layer of soil was most affected by accumulation of boron. However, there is no excessive boron pollution especially in terms of crops. Thus, decision makers, irrigators and farmers could be used these boron pollution maps for appropriate irrigation and soil management.en_US
