The paper examines the performance of wheat crop under sprinkler irrigation system in Southern Haryana. For selection sample farmers, multistage random sampling technique was used. At first stage, two districts namely Bhiwani and Rewari were selected purposively due to high rate adoption system. second again blocks from each district at third stage village block fifteen farmers then randomly. P...

-Water plays an important role in everyday’s life. Agriculture is a backbone of our country and it uses 85% of available fresh water for irrigation. Irrigation is the method of supplying the water to the plants artificially. In India, Farmers follow different irrigation systems to cultivate the crops. The different types of irrigation methods include sprinkler irrigation, drip irrigation, surfa...

In 1999, an outbreak of Legionnaires' disease affected many visitors to a flower show in the Netherlands. To identify the source of the outbreak, we performed an environmental investigation, as well as a case-control study among visitors and a serologic cohort study among exhibitors to measure exposure to possible sources. Of 77,061 visitors, 188 became ill (133 confirmed and 55 probable cases)...

this research presents a new application of the cloud theory-based simulated annealing algorithm to solve mixed model assembly line sequencing problems where line stoppage cost is expected to be optimized. this objective is highly significant in mixed model assembly line sequencing problems based on just-in-time production system. moreover, this type of problem is np-hard and solving this probl...

Mobile drip irrigation (MDI) technology adapts driplines to the drop hoses of moving sprinkler systems to apply water as the drip lines are pulled across the field. There is interest in this technology among farmers in the Texas High Plains region to help sustain irrigated agriculture. However, information on the performance of this system and its benefits relative to common sprinkler applicati...

Wave lensing produces the highest level of transient solar irradiances found in nature, ranging in intensity over several orders of magnitude in just a few tens of milliseconds. Shallow coral reefs can be exposed to wave lensing during light-wind, clear-sky conditions, which have been implicated as a secondary cause of mass coral bleaching through light stress. Management strategies to protect ...

mercury is one of the most toxic heavy metals present in aquatic systems, exhibiting a complex behaviour in the environment, where it may persist for decades after the source of pollution is stopped. hence, it is important develop new techniques for its removal from the aquatic systems. in this context, a particularly promising line of research is the use of new materials capable of up taking m...

ABSTRACT Information on soil hydrodynamic processes assists in explaining the soil-water-plant relationship and has practical applications to irrigation management, such as definition of water sensor placement. The objective this study was detail process root zone define location for placement under different configurations trickle banana crops. Three micro-sprinkler emitters with flow rates 70...
