Seawater is deemed as renewable energy and supplemental water source in coastal development. Utilizing seawater resources air conditioning plumbing system involves implementation of innovative technology such (SWAC), heat pump (SWHP), landscape irrigation system, potable greywater recycling. The research aims to demonstrate usage efficiency option reduce consumption, save freshwater environment...

to study the effects of used water in evapotranspiration, seed number per unit area and leaf relative water content on seed weight of canola (brassica napus l.), an experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design, arranged in a split-plot under two conditions, i.e. supplemental irrigation and rainfed in 2005-7. two cultivars of canola (‘hyola401’ and ‘rgs003’) as subplots were gr...

Land and water are two major inputs for crop production. Simulation modelling was used to determine sequences that maximise farm return. Crop yield determined different irrigation scheduling scenarios based on the fraction of available soil (FASW). Farm returns ($ ML−1 $ ha−1) were evaluated seven sequences. Three price (dry, median, wet) considered. The summer crops increased with irrigation. ...

Abstract Farmers use irrigation to mitigate drought risk and reduce yield uncertainty. A clear understanding of the monetary value water how it varies across time space can help inform farmers policymakers about potential impacts shortages uncertainty in decision making. Here, we introduce a framework for economic used produce corn central High Plains region during period 2010–2017. Our analysi...

Rainfed farming is a dominant agricultural system in Tigray, Ethiopia. However, rainfall characterized by short duration, intense and erratic subjected to late-onset early cessation, suggesting pressing need for Supplemental Irrigation (SI) fill the crop water demand. Understanding effects of SI during late-onset, or both, along with their underlying causes, critical knowledge gap globally. Alt...
