We determined if frequency of application of irrigation water plus fertilizer in solution (fertigation) could modify root and shoot growth along with growth per unit nitrogen (N) and water uptake of seedlings of the citrus rootstock Swingle citrumelo growing in a greenhouse. In the first experiment, all plants received the same amount of water with sufficient fertilizer N but in three irrigatio...

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...

BACKGROUND: One of limitation factor in agricultural plants production in dry areas, supply requires water. Also nutrition crop management is a necessary strategy for achieve sustainable agriculture. OBJECTIVES: Current study was conducted to assessment the effects of different irrigation regimes and several amount of nitrogen fertilizer on seed nutrition...

one of the biggest barriers for agricultural production in iran is water deficit. however, certain optimum approaches for water application can solve this problem. deficit irrigation technique is an approach that could have a better and economic use of water in agriculture. in this regard, a research with three factors including two irrigation intervals of 8 and 12 days, two nitrogen fertilizer...

Received: July 25, 2017 Revised: November 23, 2017 Accepted: December 17, 2017 Abstract: Introduction: Due to the water shortage and dry Mediterranean condition, determination of water and nitrogen (N) fertilizer requirements is a major challenge for crop production and environment protection. A field experiment was carried out for two consecutive years (2014 and 2015) to evaluate the response ...

A fuzzy control irrigation system for cotton field is presented in this paper. The system is composed of host computer, slave computer controller, communication module, soil water sensors, valve controllers, and system software. A fuzzy control model is constructed to control the irrigation time and irrigation quantity for cotton filed. According to the water-required rules of different cotton ...

to investigate the effect of deficit irrigation and macro and micro fertilizers on morpho-physiological characteristics of satureja a field experiment was conducted in agricultural research station of haji-abad (hormozghan province-iran) a split plot randomized complete block design with three replications during the growing season of 2012-2014. irrigation treatments consisted of normal, modera...

the study was carried out to examine the effects of urban sewage and nitrogen fertilizer levels on yield quantity and quality forage of sweet corn was evaluated in yasouj at 2009. the main experimental factor consisted of 5 irrigation levels including: common irrigation water without sewage effluent until the end of plant growth (i1), the first half of plant growth period with sewage effluent a...
