A ®eld experiment was conducted during the dry season of 1993/1994 at the Irrigation Research Farm, Institute for Agricultural Research, Samaru, Nigeria to evaluate water management options on the performance of tomato. The trial involved three furrow irrigation methods (conventional furrow, conventional furrow with cutback, and alternate furrow), two mulch treatments (without mulch and straw m...

As an initial effort to understand the Asian irrigation systems dynamism and their robustness overtime, this paper examines two irrigation systems of Kok river system within Mekong river basin in Northern Thailand in the context of changing governance mechanisms and evolution of technological and market forces. Since the processes involved in first starting collective action are different than ...

allergic patients during the pollen season. Nasal tissues appear to play a critical role in this rise because levels of IgE to these allergens may be inhibited by intranasal steroids administered during the season.1,2 Sodium chloride nasal irrigation is an old home remedy used for rhinitis relief with a presumably rather simple action: nasal cleansing and secretion removal. Here we have assesse...

the effects of grafting under conditions of deficit irrigation, on content of minerals leaf and root, evalutate in a field experiment under deficit irrigation was conducted with split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications, in the research field of higher education institution imam khomeini (ra) under the ministry of agriculture in karaj, during 2014. in this study, ...

This study investigated the effects of 4 aeration levels (varied by injection of air to the soil through subsurface irrigation lines) at two subsurface irrigation line depths (15 and 40 cm) on plant growth, yield and nutritional quality of greenhouse tomato. In all experiments, fruit number, width and length, yield, vitamin C, lycopene and sugar/acid ratio of tomato markedly increased in respon...

To assessment growth physiological charachteristics of two hybrids of sweet corn affected different irrigation pattern and zinc fertilization, a research was conducted as split plot factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications. Main factor included different levels of irrigation pattern included conventional furrow irrigation, fixed every other furrow ...

abstract to study the effect of water stress in rapeseed cultivars at the seedling stage, 10 rapeseed cultivars were evaluated at three irrigation levels [normal irrigation (control) and irrigation after depletion of 60 and 85% of available soil water]. analysis of variance showed considerable variation among cultivars. water stress reduced all of the studied morphological characteristics, espe...

water scarcity in arid and semi-arid climate of iran has made deficit irrigation as a strategy for optimal water use and conservation in agricultural sector. this study aimed at evaluating the effects of water-deficit stress and n fertilizer levels on sugar beet performance. the study was conducted in split block design based on randomized complete block design arrangement. the row factor consi...

in order to study the effect of irrigation interval, n fertilizer and superabsorbent on yield and qualitative traits of sesame (sesamum indicum l.), a split-split-plot experiment was coducted in a farm in khusf of birjand, iran in 2009 on the basis of a randomized complete block design. the main plot was devoted to irrigation interval at three levels of 6, 12 and 18 days, the sub-plot was devot...
