The aim of paper is to present the specifics of irrigation in organic production, to point out the most important principles and parameters of water quality for irrigation. Irrigation management in organic production is tasked with paying special attention to the quality of water. Irrigation in organic production may have an adverse effect on yield and product quality, if irrigation water contains toxic elements or is microbiologically contaminated. The results from this study show that the water resources of the Republic of Serbia are suitable for organic production, but there are water sources that are contaminated. The best system of irrigation in organic production (vegetables, fruit growing) is ‘drop by drop’, because other ways increase the risks of spreading pathogens and spoilage of soil structure. In organic production, irrigation water must be of adequate quality. The process of certification of organic production can include water analysis from the aspect of the content of elements, on physical parameters and microbiological correctness. If certain failures are identified, the manager is obliged to inform the certification body about this and to take appropriate actions.
