Water stress is the most important abiotic stress in crop production. Silicium (Si) is the second most abundant element in the soil with beneficial effects on plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. In order to evaluate the effect of this element in increasing tolerance to water deficit in wheat, a factorial experiment was conducted based on a completely randomized design with three rep...

Deficit irrigation is one of the irrigation management methods that is used to increase Water Use Efficiency. Considering the internal plant adaptability characteristic to water shortage, Partial Root Drying method has been introduced in recent years. In this field research improvement of Water Use Efficiency for Soybean was determined. This experiment which was conducted at four furrow irrigat...

Designing an optimal crop pattern and on-time water allocation of water resources along with deficit irrigation are among the optimal solutions to maximize the water economic efficiency index. In this paper, the simultaneous optimization of crop pattern and water allocation are discussed using the deficit irrigation method. The study area is located west of the Qazvin plain irrigation network. ...
