The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of using waste water as an alternative for irrigation of Jatropha plants grown in different growing media (sand – clay or calcareous soils). Data on vegetative parameters were (Plant height, number of leaves/Plant, number of branches/Plant and fresh and dry weight as well as chemical composition (contents of chlorophyll a, b and a + b, total carbohydrates, fatty acids and composition of seeds oil. Data indicated that irrigation with sewage water led to the best vegetative growth parameter and chemical of Jatropha plants grown in sandy soil compared to control. | ||
