- Observation Fresh-water control produced the highest wheat grain yield, 3.85 t ha?1.
- Observation Fresh-water control produced the highest wheat straw yield, 5.09 t ha?1.
- Observation Fresh-water control produced the highest wheat biomass yield, 8.93 t ha?1.
- Recommendation The authors call for further investigation of 4 dS m?1 irrigation water salinity as advantageous.
