Özet

Many geothermal waters in Turkey contain an excess of boron. Although boron is normally available in low amounts in soil and irrigation waters, it accumulates very fast in soils irrigated by geothermal waters containing boron because of the diffuculty of washing it out. This stuation badly affects the plantation of many agricultural products.
