In a runoff irrigation system using levelled basins, the water uptake patterns of different plant species (Acacia saligna (Labill.) H. L. Wend. and Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.) with contrasting root and shoot development were compared. Rainfall amounts during 1995 led to enough runoff water for realizing two cropping cycles. The amount of irrigation water was sufficient to fill the moisture-de...

evaluation of rainfall effect on programing of agricultural management (case study: golestan region) abstract securing of water need in agricultural is important. precipitation are one of the most important of water resources in agricultural, in golestan province, especially , because alborze mountains are in golestan south. in research has investigated effects of rainfall to cropping pattern a...

The multiple cropping practice is essential to agriculture because it has been shown to significantly increase the grain yield and promote agricultural economic development. In this study, potential multiple cropping systems in China are calculated based on meteorological observation data by using the Agricultural Ecology Zone (AEZ) model. Following this, the changes in the potential cropping s...

Time series data on cropping pattern at disaggregated level were analysed and its implications on geospatial drought assessment were demonstrated. An index of Cropping Pattern Dissimilarity (CP-DI) between a pair of years, developed in this study, proved that the cropping pattern of a year has a higher degree of similarity with that of recent past years only and tends to be dissimilar with long...

Abstract In the current century, sustainable production of agricultural products is one main challenges facing humanity. The amount water consumption, energy, and net income as important components sustainability systems special priority importance. This study used linear multi-objective programming models with aim maximizing five indicators cost efficiency (CE), irrigation (IE), energy product...

Bihar has a total geographical area of 93.60 lakh hectares on which it houses population 82.9 million, thereby generating density 880 persons per sq. km (Census 2001). Gross sown in the State is 79.46 hectares, while net 56.03 hectares. There are around 1.04 crore landholdings 83 percent marginal holdings size less than 1 hectare (Table 1). With 90 living rural areas, agriculture as primary fee...

recently, design of cropping pattern based on water resources is getting a high priority. this scheme is complicated, and affected by multiple factors. for investigation, designer must gather a huge data, and classify them. the method of processing and analyzing of the information is important. the method of linear programming based on lingo software for hendijan irrigation and drainage network...
