The present study was carried out to determine the effects of Gamma radiation on sewage sludge and without sludge on the plant growth and the fruits of Sacha Inchi as a test plant have been studied in the field test. Sewage sludge was irradiated with 6 and 25 kGy radiation doses. There was no significant effect of irradiated sludge on plant heights compared with non-irradiated sludge and without sludge. However, a significant increase in fruits production in the presence of irradiated sludge grew after one year. In addition, mineral compositions in sacha inchi seeds also increased by using irradiated sewage sludge. The results found that copper, zinc, iron, nickel, lead, arsenic, and cadmium concentrations in sewage sludge were below the recommended levels for the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA, 40CFR 503). Sewage-sludge application is provided the benefits of major nutrients increased. It was found that Gamma Irradiated sewage sludge indicates a beneficial effect for agricultural applications.
