Summer Drip Irrigation Requirements for Cucumber

Influence of Drip-irrigation Method on Performance and Yields of Cucumber and Tomato

The conservation of water is crucial to sustainable agricultural production in areas of low rainfall or uneven precipitation distribution. Under such circumstances, drip irrigation methods offer a useful option for economic production of vegetable crops. This preliminary study examined the efficacy and performance of two drip irrigation methods on cucumber and tomato crops grown out of season. ...

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...

Application of nematicides via drip irrigation.

Use of drip, or trickle, irrigation in agriculture has increased rapidly during the past 20 years. In 1970 approximately 50,000 ha in the United States were under drip irrigation, by 1985 the area had increased to over 300,000 ha (6). Irrigation has been used to deliver fertilizers and pesticides (8,9,14,18,27,28), and there are increasing numbers of studies on the application of nematicidal co...
