Deficit Irrigation Using Saline Water of Fruit Trees under Water Scarcity Conditions of Southern Tunisia

چکیده

Both water scarcity and salinity are major obstacles for crop production in arid parts of Tunisia require adoption strategies aimed at improving water-use efficiency. Field experiments on deficit irrigation (DI) table olive, orange trees, grapevines with saline (2 dS·m−1) were conducted the region Médenine, Tunisia. Three treatments compared farmer’s method (FM) over two years (2013–2014): (DI75) (DI50), which received 75% 50% less than full (FI), respectively, compensation evapotranspiration (FI). Measurements included seasonal changes soil content, salinity, yield, fruit quality, economic return. Results showed that in-season limitations, roughly between 700–250 mm, caused significant reductions yield weight, but improved total soluble solids fruits. Under FI, DI75, DI50, FM, average yields 26.6, 20.1, 14.7, 21.2 t·ha−1 orange, 4.5, 4.0, 3.1, 3.5 3.8, 3.4, grapevine, respectively. Soil build up increased linearly decreasing water. Irrigation productivity (IWP), although lowest was relatively high (3.30–4.30 kg·m−3 0.65–1.20 0.74–1.30 grapevine). Economic evaluation FI strategy generated greatest net income (1800–6630 USD·ha−1), followed by DI75 (1350–3940 FM (844–4340 DI50 (600–2400 USD·ha−1). The results show an important potential reasonably sustaining under scarcity.

Application of the SWAP model to simulate water-salt transport under deficit irrigation with saline water

The agro-hydrological Soil–Water–Atmosphere–Plant (SWAP) model was calibrated and validated to simulate water–salt transport based on field experiments in an arid region of China. The simulation results show lower soil water content but higher salt concentration under deficit irrigation. Soil water and salinity below 95 cm at 80% evapotranspiration (ETc ) treatments and 65 cm at 60% ETc treatme...

Modification of transient state analytical model under different saline groundwater depths, irrigation water salinities and deficit irrigation for quinoa

Salinization of soil is primarily caused by capillary rise from saline shallow groundwater orapplication of saline irrigation water. In this investigation, the transient state analytical modelwas modified to predict water uptake from saline shallow groundwater, actual cropevapotranspiration, soil water content, dry matter, seed yield and soil salinity under differentsaline groundwater depths, i...
