One negative effect is that appeared on agricultural lands in the alluvial plain areas we shed light on the governates of Najaf and Basrah as a model for case study ,therefore, the salinity is increasing as we head from north to south and it appears that the water of the Euphrates River contains the highest percentages of dissolved salts, as these ratios of both rivers Tigris and Euphrates increase towards the south in order to increase evaporation and the concentration of salinity in their water.
