The aim of this paper is to study the possibility of reusing drainage water successfully without hazardous consequences on soil properties. A pot experiment was conducted at the Agricultural Research Center Experimental Field at Giza. Irrigation waters were of 3 levels of salinities 1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm and were added into soils for three periods 4,5 and/or 5 months in addition to the control (fresh water for 6 months). Results showed the possibility of the re-use of drainage water for irrigating sugar beet crop. No significant differences in yield occurred when irrigation waters of salinities 1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm were used. No problems were developed of soil degradation e.g. salinity, sodicity and/or permeability were observed when these waters were used for 4, 5 and / or 6 months.
