Abstract: In this study, the physiological and agronomic responses of commercial ‘Citrus Clementina cv. Orogrande’ mandarin trees to irrigation with saline reclaimed water (RW) (electrical conductivity≈3.5dSm−1) were evaluated during six consecutive seasons (2008–2013) and compared with those observed in trees irrigated with fresh water from Tagus-Segura” water transfer canal (TW).
