Water Quality Guidelines 

EC range (µS/cm): 0 – 800

• Ideal for human consumption ( provided there are no suspended clay materials or other pollutants)
• Good for irrigation
• Perfect for livestock

EC range (µS/cm): 800 - 2,500

• Ideal partly for human consumption
• Requires special management when used for irrigation
• Perfect for livestock

EC range (µS/cm): 2,500 - 10,000

• Not ideal for human consumption
• Not ideal for irrigation
• Ideal for livestock, if the salinity is limited to 6000 µS/cm
• Water having 4000 µS/cm can lead to shell cracking in laying hens 

EC range (µS/cm): Over 10,000

• Not ideal for irrigation or human consumption
• Not ideal for livestock such as poultry, pigs, and lactating animals.
• Water having 50,000 µS/cm can be used to flush toilets, provided there is a corrosion control
