  1. Saline water is not fit for domestic, agricultural, or industrial use due to its high salt content. For domestic purposes, its salinity makes it undrinkable and harmful to health. In agriculture, saline water increases soil salinity, which can inhibit plant growth and reduce crop yields. For industrial use, the salt in saline water can corrode machinery, interfere with processes, and reduce the efficiency of operations. Thus, fresh water is essential for these critical uses.
