The aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of the homeopathic calcium carbonate in the properties of surface water and distilled water, with the purpose of managing the irrigation water and agriculture quality. The experiments were conducted at the Laboratory of Homeopathy, DFT / UFV, where 12 homeopathic solutions were prepared (dynamized in distilled water) and 20 drops of each dynamization process (1 to 12 CH) applied in glass bottles containing 80 mL of mine water (surface water) and distilled water. The experiments were conducted in the factorial scheme 13 x 2 (13 treatments and 2 types of water), and the randomized blocks design was utilized, with 4 replications. The following aspects were determined: Ionic Hydrogen Potential (pH), Electrical Conductivity (EC), Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and Turbidity (TURB) (only in experiment 4) oftreated water. It was concluded that the dynamizations of calcium carbonate caused changes in pH, EC and turbidity of the water. The DO was not affected by the treatment with homeopathic water. Homeopathic preparations xiv caused different responses in relation to the analyzed variables. Changes in mine water and distilled water differ because of the same dynamizations, highlighting the characteristics of each water.
