Resumen
Food security concerns, climate change impacts, and increased pressure on conventional
water resources have encouraged the agricultural use of nonconventional water resources in the last
decade. As a result, desalinated seawater (DSW) has already consolidated its position as an alternative
source to increase the supply for crop irrigation in Spain and Israel, where farmers’ acceptance is
progressively on the rise. The first experiences in these regions highlighted that DSW agricultural use
involves new agronomic, economic, and environmental challenges which require innovative research
approaches and imply novel water management strategies. In this Special Issue, eight high-quality
papers which present current research trials and study cases, covering a wide range of topics that are
relevant when irrigating with DSW, have been selected. The papers came from the three regions of
the world that currently have a massive agricultural DSW supply: Southeastern Spain, Israel, and ...
