management of irrigation water salinity in greenhouse tomato production under calcareous sandy soil and drip irrigation
a greenhouse experiment was conducted during the growing seasons (2008/2009 and 2009/2010) to investigate the effects of water quality and soil amendments, irrigation methods and rates on tomato (solanum lycopersicon l. cv. red gold) yield and water use efficiency (wue). irrigation management treatments were fresh (0.86 ds m-1) and saline waters (3.6 ds m-1), surface and subsurface irrigation m...
متن کاملGreenhouse Tomato Production with High Saline Nutrient Solution Simulating a Re- circulating Irrigation System without Environmental Discharge
Increased tomato fruit quality in response to increased salinity is well documented (Li, 2000). However, the increased fruit quality is achieved at the expenses of severe yield losses mostly due to reduced fruit size (fresh weight) and increased incidence of physiological disorders such as blossom end rot (BER). The ability to minimize the negative effects of high salinity at the root level, wh...
متن کاملImplement of Fuzzy Control for Greenhouse Irrigation
Abstract. By adopting the fuzzy control theory, a greenhouse irrigation automatic control system has been designed with the characteristic of accurate of the nonlinear, time-variability, long time delay and the characteristic of accurate mathematic model being hard to establish. Through some basic experiments, the basic domain of input and output of the fuzzy controller were ascertained. Time v...
متن کاملOn strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Equity is of fundamental concern in the quest for international cooperation to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations by the reduction of emissions. By modeling the carbon cycle, we estimate the global CO(2) emissions that would be required to stabilize the atmospheric concentration of CO(2) at levels ranging from 450 to 1,000 ppm. These are compared, on both an absolute and a per-capita basis...
متن کاملComparison of Coconut Coir, Rockwool, and Peat Cultivations for Tomato Production: Nutrient Balance, Plant Growth and Fruit Quality
Rockwool (RC) and peat are two common substrates used worldwide in horticultural crop production. In recent years environmental and ecological concerns raised the demand for reducing the use of RC and peat. Although coconut coir (CC) has been increasingly used as an alternative to RC and peat, it is still needed to comprehensively evaluate the feasibility of CC before widely used. To meet this ...
