The experiment was conducted to see the hypothesis of reducing the impact of irrigation water contaminated with heavy metals using some soil amendments and its effect on rice yield. A site was selected near kafr El sheikh governorate, Egypt. Due to water shortage in this area farmers are forced to use low water quality for irrigating his paddy field. This experiment investigated the effect of six soil amendments { rice straw (RS), rice straw compost (RSC), rice husk (RH), rice husk compost (RHC), rice husk biochar (RHB) and wood-dust biochar ( WDB)} in addition to control on the growth of rice (cv. Giza 178) and heavy metals dynamic in paddy soil that was irrigated with low water quality. The best results were from the application of RHB that increased grain yield, and decreased Ni, Cd and Pb concentrations in straw and grain. The other soil amendments under study also increased the grain yield, and effectively decreased the Ni, Cd and Pb concentrations in straw and grain. Concentrations of Ni, Cd and Pb in grain and straw were dependent on the available of them in soil. The mean value of CEC of soil under RHB was highest. Among the soil amendments the heavy metals concentration in straw and grain were ranged as follow; RHB < WDB < RH< RHC < RSC < RS < control. Finally RHB or WDB can be considered as a by-product material for application under paddy field irrigated with low water quality.
