In this study, the traditional full/deficit irrigation and partial root drying (F-PRD) techniques with four different amounts of (100%, 80%, 60% 40%) were examined on Rubygem Strawberry species under controlled greenhouse conditions, in terms yield, yield parameters, WUE, IWUE, response factor (ky), etc. their possible reactions have been investigated. study which fresh seedlings used, planted ...

Irrigation management has gained significance due to growing social needs and increasing command for food grains while the available resources have remained limited and scarce. Irrigation management includes optimal allocation of water for irrigation purposes, optimal cropping pattern for a given land area and water availabilities with an objective to maximize economic returns. In the present s...

The effects of cultivar mixture cropping on yield, biomass, and water use efficiency (WUE) in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were investigated under non-irrigation (W0, no irrigation during growth stage), one time irrigation (W1, irrigation applied at stem elongation) and two times irrigation (W2, irrigation applied at stem elongation and anthesis) conditions. Nearly 90% of cultivar mixtur...

Despite of the water use increment for other sectors than agriculture, the water use for irrigation is the main water consumer in global scale. However, irrigation has been pressured by the civil society to improve water use efficiency in agriculture, to prevent water scarcity for human population that grows continuously, mainly in developing areas of the planet. On the other hand, the irrigati...

Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation can save water while maintaining rice yields, but in some countries its adoption by farmers remains limited. Key knowledge gaps include the effect of AWD on early vegetative vigor and its relationship with yield; the effects of AWD on yield and water use efficiency of local cultivars used by smallholder farmers; and the socio-economic factors influe...
