Simulation of drip irrigation on slope lands

effect of slope on soil wetting pattern under surface drip irrigation and simulation hydrus-2d model

in this study, effect of slope on soil wetting pattern under surface drip irrigation and simulation with hydrus-2d model evaluated.the physical model made of plexiglas to size 83, 6 and 54 cm (length, width, height) filled with silty clay loam soil was used. to achieve the desired discharge, a small drip irrigation system created that includes a water tank with a fixed height (about 2 meters), ...

Using Irrigation to Manage Weeds: A Focus on Drip Irrigation

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...

Effects of salinity and irrigation water management on soil and tomato in drip irrigation

In this research, the effects of irrigation with saline and fresh water through drip irrigation method and using two irrigation management strategies: M1, M2 (M1 is irrigation with fresh water in alternative with saline water, M2 is saline water in first half time of each irrigation event and fresh water in the second half), on the yield, water productivity (WP), soil salinity, plant height...

Advantages and Disadvantages of Subsurface Drip Irrigation

The advantages and disadvantages of subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) as compared to alternative irrigation systems are conceptually discussed. Each category (advantages and disadvantages) is subdivided into three groups: 1) Water and soil issues; 2) Cropping and cultural practices, and 3) System infrastructure issues. The adaptation and adoption of SDI systems into diverse cropping systems, geo...
