At the same time, it is facing conditions that may cause its degradation, even its disappearance. This study aimed to identify these constraints and propose an effective and sustainable solution to these problems. The second objective of this study was to propose an oasis production system which will enable the valorization of water resources, sustainable socio-economic development, and the preservation of the environment.<br> Method: This is a descriptive and analytical study that was conducted using a survey and measurements of soil, irrigation water, and phreatic aquifer water.<br> Results: The soils of the Ouargla Oasis are sandy in texture (85% sand) and very salty (electrical conductivity of 3.56 dS/m), and they have very low organic matter content (0.25% organic matter). The phreatic aquifer is very salty (electrical conductivity of 30.13 dS/m) and very shallow (96.16 cm deep). The date palm uses the uppermost layer, which it shares with a few other crops. The irrigation technique practiced is submersion with inefficient drainage.<br> Conclusion: To preserve Ouargla Oasis against degradation by salinization and waterlogging of the soil, and in order to preserve water and increase farmers&rsquo; incomes, it is necessary to practice rational water management and crop diversification.</div> Sustainable agriculture, Environmental sustainability, Groundwater, Soil, Phoeniciceae 1 8 http://ehemj.com/browse.php?a_code=A-10-1-445&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Abdelkader Ladjici ladjiciabdelkader@gmail.com 100319475328460021976 0009-0005-8286-720X No Saharan Bioresources Laboratory: Preservation and Valorization, Faculty of Natural and Life Sciences, Ouargla University, 30000, Algeria Tahar Idder tahar_id@yahoo.fr 100319475328460021977 100319475328460021977 No Laboratory for the Research Laboratory on Phoeniciculture ‘Phoenix’, Ouargla University, Faculty of Natural and Life Sciences, Ouargla, 30000, Algeria Dadamoussa Mohamed Lakhdar dadahami@mail.com 100319475328460021978 100319475328460021978 No Laboratory for the Research Laboratory on Phoeniciculture ‘Phoenix’, Ouargla University, Faculty of Natural and Life Sciences, Ouargla, 30000, Algeria Cherifa Lamrani c_lamrani@yahoo.fr 100319475328460021979 0009-0005-9624-8952 Yes Correspondence to: Research Laboratory for the Biogeochemistry of Desert Environments, Ouargla University, Faculty of Natural and Life Sciences, Ouargla, 30000, Algeria Abdelbasset Boumadda aboumadda@gmail.co 100319475328460021980 100319475328460021980 No Laboratory for the Research Laboratory on Phoeniciculture ‘Phoenix’, Ouargla University, Faculty of Natural and Life Sciences, Ouargla, 30000,Laboratory for the Research Laboratory on Phoeniciculture ‘Phoenix’, Ouargla University, Faculty of Natural and Life Sciences, Ouargla, 30000, Algeria
