All water samples were slightly saline having average pH 7.54 in May and 7.36 in October. Average EC was 0.728 and 0.576 dSm⁻¹ in May and October, respectively. The EC of water samples were high in the month of May. Na⁺ content in water ranged from 1.00 to 11.27 meL⁻¹ during May while in winter it was from 0.50 to 9.68 meL⁻¹. Among all samples, Na⁺ and Cl were dominant in water. The relative proportion of cations in irrigation water were Na⁺ > Mg⁺⁺ > Ca⁺⁺> K⁺. In summer K⁺ ranged from 0.03 to 1.5 meL⁻¹, Ca⁺⁺ from 0.8 to 6.5 meL⁻¹ and Mg⁺⁺ from 0.2 to 7.0 meL⁻¹. The CO₃⁻ content ranged from 0 to 2.2 meL⁻¹ with an average value of 0.776 meL
