water-reuse
Water reuse refers to the treatment and recycling of municipal or industrial wastewater for beneficial purposes, including agricultural irrigation. In plant science, it offers a sustainable alternative to freshwater sources for crop production, making it especially valuable in water-scarce regions. Researchers study how reclaimed water affects plant growth, nutrient uptake, and potential exposure to contaminants, informing safe and effective irrigation practices.
