Most WW irrigation projects are not dedicated to irrigation of vegetables eaten raw. It must be noted that MOST of the WW irrigation projects around the world are not dedicated to the irrigation of vegetables eaten raw, or to vegetables at all. Hundreds of successful projects perform irrigation of corn, olive trees, wine grapes, cotton, tomatoes dedicated to canned products, flowers, golf courses, etc. Israel started to perform massive WW irrigation in the seventies for cotton production. There are more than 200 wastewater open reservoirs in the country, and many new projects are at an advance step of planning and construction.
Treated wastewater is seen as an integral part of the water resources of the country.
