A research was conducted in Southern Italy to study the changes in seed yield, oil content andfatty acids composition, in response to irrigation at different stages of growing season (at sowing,Dry; from sowing to beginning of flowering, S-BF; from visible bud to 75% flowering, VB-FF;from beginning of flowering to seed ripening, BF-M; from sowing to seed ripening, Full), in astandard sunflower ...

A field crop irrigation management decision-making system (CropIrri) was developed based on the soil water balance model, crop phenology model, root growth model, crop water production function, and irrigation management model. The irrigation plan is made through predicating of soil water content in root zone and daily crop water requirement using historical and forecasting weather data, measur...

the effects of planting date and single irrigation (si) allocation scenarios on increasing and stability of yield were investigated to determine the total water productivity and economical water productivity (wpe), for rainfed wheat at dryland agricultural research institute in maragheh, iran, during 2000-2004. the treatments included three sowing dates (early, normal and late), four allocation...

shallot (allium altissimum regel.) is a medicinal, industrial and perennial plant that has underground tubers. it is one of the most important allium species in iran, which normally grows in semi-cold to very cold highlands. because of being a wild plant, shallot is encounter with water deficit during its growth season. therefore evaluation of water requirement of shallot is important. in order...

to investigate the effects of sowing date (sd) and single irrigation (si) on grain yield of rainfed wheat varieties, this experiment was conducted as split-split plot arranged in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications from sep.2000 to sep.2004 at the main station of dryland agricultural research institute (dari) in maragheh. the treatments included three sowing dates ...

sowing and harvesting date are the most important agronomic factors that we should pay attention to proper date selection for sowing date in order to achieve good crop establishment and to harvest date in order to achieve the best time for crop quantities and qualities ripening. farmers intend to germinate sugar beet seed at minimum environmental temperature. sowing date affects crop canopy dev...

in order to evaluate yield and yield components properties of cold-tolerant chickpea under winter sowing and complementary irrigation conditions, two experiments in the context of partial balanced block design with 81 chickpea genotypes and three replications were carried out. complementary irrigation was performed during growing season including irrigation immediately after sowing, 20 days aft...

to evaluate the yield and yield components in additive intercropping system of grain sorghum (sorghum bicolor l.) and cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.) under limited irrigation condition, an experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran, during spring 2006. the experimental treatments were arranged in split plots based on a complete randomized block desig...

the main objective in production of any rainfed crop, including barley farming is to increase water productivity along with stability in the production of the rainfed crop through improvement of the agronomic management including limited single irrigation (si) and sowing date (sd). in order to determine optimal si management and limited water allocation scenarios, a field experiment was conduct...
