Efficiency of superabsorbents in improving water productivity
Agricultural residues and various other materials are currently being used as additives to improve the physical and chemical properties of soil. Iran is located in an arid and semiarid region, so using strategies to reduce water use will reduce the problem water scarcity. The use of superabsorbent to increase water uptake and retention is one of the solutions that have been applied to improve w...
متن کاملWater Saving under Alternative Furrows Surface Irrigation in Clay Soils of North Nile Delta
Surface irrigation is the dominant method of on-farm irrigation in Egypt as well as world wide. Furrow watering is considered as one of the main types of surface irrigation. Most of the cultivated crops are grown under such type of watering. The principal advantage of furrow irrigation is the less irrigated area comparing with that under basin irrigation which equaled total cultivated acreage. ...

in order to improve irrigation water productivity (wp) at rice production, a field experiment was conducted at shahid fozveh research station (esfahan region) during 2001-2003. experiment was arranged in a split plot design (rcbd) with three replications. the treatments were: three levels of irrigation managements including i1: permanent flooding under 3.5cm water during growth period, i2:perma...
متن کاملUsing the PILOTE Model to Improve Water Productivity for Rice in Rasht, North of Iran
In order to calibrate and validate the PILOTE model for rice in a humid climate, this study was carried in a randomized complete block design with three replications on a popular local variety, Hashemi, during 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006 and 2007 crop seasons. This research was done at the Rice Research Institute of Rasht, Iran. Evaluation of simulated and measured grain yield and dry matter values ...
متن کاملReclaiming soils to sustain maize and soybean productivity in the Midwestern US given climate change
I build a model that explains Midwestern US maize and soybean yield as a function of weather and soil capability. Climate change is expected to reduce mid-century maize and soybean yields in the Midwest by 8% to 28% and 7% to 23%, respectively, depending on cropped land’s soil capability and severity of climate change, compared to baseline values calculated with no climate change. I find that s...
