Summary

Research is devoted to prevention of collector-drainage and river water pollution by agricultural chemicals, removed from irrigated fields of Shuruzyak massif; collector-drainage water hydro-botanic treatment in order to reuse them for irrigation. Climate is continental; relief-hilly. Soil structure: sandy loam, light and medium loam- are  saline from  1.5-2.0m (0.7-1.5%) and polluted by agricultural chemicals. Ground water table depth is 1.0- 1.5m (spring) and up to 2.5m (fall); water salinity is 5-10g/l, sulfate-chloride. Irrigated area is 638ha (net); land use efficiency is 0.85. Water supply is made from SyrDarya river, canals efficiency is 0.94, system efficiency-0.70-0.75. Specific collectors extent is 6-8m/ha. Water disposal is made to SyrDarya river. Method of collector-drainage water hydro-botanic treatment is developed for AmuDarya and SyrDarya downstream. Proposed formulae for main parameters of bio-plateau (size, water running speed, plants density depending of species, etc.) provide necessary intensity and degree of bio-botanic treatment. Developed method gives possibility to reduce level of pollution and regulate surface water quality in the river basin and improve environment.
