Raw sewer and tube well water samples were collected from various sewer disposal sites and nearby fields in Kurukshetra, Kaithal, Narwana, Jind and Charkhi Dadri (Haryana) where these waters are directly used for irrigating the crops. The mean values of pH (8.49), electrical conductivity (1.91 dSm-1), chemical oxygen demand (762.0 mg L-1) and biological oxygen demand (227.5 mg L-1) were highest in sewage water of Kaithal. The highest mean value of Ca2+ (4.84 mgL-1) was observed in the sewage water of Charkhi Dadri while Mg2+ (7.41 mg L-1) and Na+ (10.50 mg L-1) were recorded highest in the sewage water of Narwana. The mean value of K+ content was highest (2.07 mg L-1) in the sewage water of Jind district. The mean values of anions like carbonates (CO32- 0.90 mg L-1) and bicarbonates (HCO3- 4.52 mg L-1) were highest in district Jind, sulphate (SO42-0.74 mg L-1) in district Kaithal and Cl- (12.06 mg L-1) in the sewage water of Narwana. Highest mean value of zinc (0.19 mg L-1) content was observed in the sewage water of Kaithal. The highest mean value of copper (0.20 mg L-1) was observed in sewage water of Kurukshetra and Kaithal district. The highest mean value of Fe (6.45 mg L-1) was observed in the sewage water of Kurukshetra district. The highest mean value of Mn (0.48 mg L-1) was observed in the sewage water of Kaithal district. The mean value of cadmium (Cd) was highest in the sewage water of Jind (0.31 mg L-1). Chromium (Cr) content was absent in the sewage and non-sewage water collected from all the sites in Haryana. The mean value of lead (Pb) (0.13 mg L-1) was highest in the sewage water of Kaithal. The mean value of cobalt (Co) (0.06 mg L-1) was highest in the sewage water of Kurukshetra district.
