In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN) method was applied to model the electrical conductivity (EC) of drainage water, based on the effects of irrigation water quality parameters such as HCO3 ‐, Cl‐, SO4 2‐, Ca2+, Ma2+, Na+, area information (leaching area and planted area), weather conditions (temperature, evaporation and precipitation) and time (days and years of system in operation). Data (312 sets) for the years 2001–2008 were available from a site located in Shoeibieh, south‐west Iran. About 70% of these data were applied to train the model, 20% for verification and about 10% were used for a final test of the ANN model produced. Many runs were carried out with different combinations of the parameters. Comparison of the results obtained for the training, validation and test patterns with the corresponding measured values showed relatively good agreement between both sets of EC values. It was also found that the most important parameters for EC simulation were the years after leaching started and the water salinity of the Karoon River, the main water supply for these lands.
