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...

Water scarcity and salinity are important limitations for saffron (Crocus sativus L.) production in arid and semi-arid regions. The purpose of this research was to study the interaction effects of water salinity and deficit irrigation on the macroscopic water extraction model for saffron. The effect of salinity and water stress on root-water uptake coefficient was determined by additive and mul...

Bulb yield and storability of onions (cv. BARI Piaj-1) was studied against five levels of irrigation viz., no irrigation, irrigation at 10, 15, 20, and 30 days interval. Yield and storage losses were increased gradually with increasing number of irrigation. The highest yield of onion was obtained with a total of six irrigations at 10 days interval and it was at par with treatment that received ...

the present pot experiment was undertaken to investigate the phytoremediation potential of corn and oat in soil. treatments consisted of four cadmium (cd) levels (0, 5, 10 and 20 mg l 1) and three irrigation intervals (1, 3 and 7 days), arranged in the form of a complete randomized design with three replications. corn and oat were harvested after 75 and 90 days, respectively. transpiration rate...

Water scarcity is an important obstacle to the development and expansion of urban landscape in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world. Nowadays organic and artificial materials can be used to reducing water consumption without reducing the quality and quantity of urban landscape. In order to study of the effect of some mulch type on the reduce of irrigation interval on a popular seasonal p...

Effects of water stress and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycoperseci (Fol) on the growth of tomatoes were studied in a greenhouse experiment. Treatments consisted of five levels of water stress (1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 day irrigation intervals). Infested soil consisting of 400 chlamydospores g1 of Fol and non infested soil were used. Experiments arranged in a completely randomized design with 8 replicati...
