In this greenhouse study, the effect of 4 irrigation water salinity (0.25, 2.0, 4.0 and 6.0 dS/m), 2 sodium (SAR=0.30 and 5.00 me/I) and 2 soil water content levels (75% and 25% of available water) on the yield of lettuca (Lactuca sativa cv. Tasna) were investigated. For this purpose, factorial experiments in fully randomised design were conducted. As a result, increasing the irrigation water salinity and alkalinity reasoned to decrease the yield of lettuce and the amounts of plant biomass but to increase the total ash content and the mineral nutrient contents. To keep the soil water content at the 75% of available water level provoked to increase the yield of lettuce
