Optimization of High Density Planting with Drip Irrigation in Rabi Onion

Effect of deficit irrigation on crop growth, yield and quality of onion in subsurface drip irrigation

Indiahas the largest area under onion (Allium cepa) crop but its average productivity (14.21 t ha-1) is considerably lower than the world’s average of 19.4 t ha-1. Besides low productivity, irrigation efficiencies are also very low i.e. 30-35% in India. Managing onion crop with less than adequate irrigation water availability is a challenge in several parts of the country. Options of i) deficit...

effect of different levels of irrigation, planting density, planting pattern in drip irrigation on yield, yield components and water use efficiency of corn

, present study was performed in order to determine effects of different amounts of irrigation water, plant density and planting pattern on yield, yield components and water use efficiency (wue) of corn, variety single cross 700 (700ksc) using drip irrigation systems (tape) , in the research station of islamabadgharb in two consecutive years (2011-2012). the project was in the form of split blo...

effect of planting pattern and water quantityon potato cultivation with drip irrigation in mashhad

abstract in order to study the effects of cultivation method and water quantities in drip irrigation on yield of potato, an experiment was carried out using a split plot based on randomized complete block design with 4 replications in torogh agricultural research station (mashhad, iran) for tow years (2001 and 2002). the main-plots were divided into 3 levels of irrigation: i1= 100, i2= 80 and i...

Opening Industrial Software: Planting an Onion

This paper studies the problem of building open source communities for industrial software that was originally developed as closed source. We present a conceptual framework for planning the early stages of the release process highlighting the main stakeholders and concerns involved. The framework is illustrated by means of three industrial software platforms reporting first experiences of the c...
