In the Western desert, on border of the Nile valley at Sohag, soil of EI-Kawamel farm Sohag University is a newly reclaimed sandy soil, The farm is about 150 feddans cultivated partially with field crops such as wheat and clover after spreading 20 -30 cm of dredged clay materials and organic farmyard manure on the soil surface as a soil amendment. Irrigated with sprinkler irrigation system with fixed sprinklers at 1 0 x 9 m. The present study was proposed to evaluate the effect of the sprinkler irrigation methods and adding the soil amendments on improving the soil physical and . chemical properties as well as the soil fertility after 10 years of cultivation as A case study. The results showed that applying the sprinkling irrigation method and adding the dredged clay materials led to leaching the salts from the soil increasing the soil fertility (N- P- K- Fe- Mn- Zn and Cu) and improving the soil water holding capacity as com- pared to uncultivated control soil. All tested measurements were presented by GIS maps and statistically analyzed.
