ABSTRACT
The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of salinity and amount of irrigation water on coriander yield. The experiment was carried out in manure bed, using three different kinds of water (S1=0,56, S2=2,41 e S3=3,93 dS.m-1) and two levels of irrigation (N1=1,03ETo e N2=1,25ETo) in a 3 x 2 factorial scheme. The results showed that the production of green leaved coriander, which is related to height, number of stems per plant and the final stand, was considerably affected by the soil salinity resulting from the manure and studied treatments. The comercial coriander production was satisfactory for the treatment where soil salinity remained below 5.1 dS.m-1.
