  Now a day’s irrigation practice in Ethiopia has given more attention to struggle poverty and increase prosperity in the country. To do so, assessments of the irrigation water quality is one of the crucial parameter for successful irrigation implementation. The researchers try to make an assessment on Gurage zone, Cheha Wereda for two periods of sampling time Pre Monsoon (PRM) starting from November up to February, 2022 and Post Monsoon (POM) starting from April up to Jun, 2022. A representative sample borehole has been identified and samples had been taken for the physic-chemistry analysis by laboratory tests in order to check their suitability for irrigation water quality assessments. For the classification of different physiochemical parameters laboratory results irrigation water quality (WHO 2008) and irrigation water quality standards (US Regional Salinity Laboratory and FAO..
