verhead irrigation is the most common form of irrigation in forest and conservation nurseries (Landis and others 1989) and in greenhouse production overall (Leskovar 1998). Overhead irrigation systems are generally less expensive to install, and have the advantage of preventing the accumulation of fertilizer salts that can be detrimental to plant growth (Argo and Biernbaum 1995). A significant ...

this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of irrigation methods and n fertilizer rates on the quantity and quality of sugar beet in ekbatan research station during 2001 and 2002. experiment was performed in split-plot with 3 replications and 15 treatments. treatments included 3 irrigation systems: sprinkler (solid set)، furrow (hydroflum) and drip (tape: 508-20-500) in main plots an...

the effects of irrigation methods, various levels of water and nitrogen fertilizer on quality of cotton were studied at hashemabad cotton research station of gorgan in 2008. the experiment was conducted in split-split plot design with three replications. irrigation methods of furrow and sprinkler were main plots, various levels of water of 0%, 33%, 66%, 100% and 133% were subplots plots and var...

abstract water and nitrogen are the main limiting factors affecting agricultural production in arid and semiarid regions. therefore, improving the efficiency of these factors is very important. the method of fertilizer application is affecting water and fertilizer use efficiency. the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of furrow fertigation on fertilizer use efficiency (fue), ...

salinity tolerance is one of the most important affecting factors on agricultural production in arid and semi-arid areas. in order to study the effects of saline and fresh water irrigation with application of organic and npk fertilizers on cumin, a split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design was carried out with three replications during 2011 and 2012, at the research farm o...

In past couple of decades, there is immediate growth in field of agricultural technology. Utilization of proper method of irrigation by drip is very reasonable and proficient. A various drip irrigation methods have been proposed, but they have been found to be very luxurious and dense to use. The farmer has to maintain watch on irrigation schedule in the conventional drip irrigation system, whi...

limitations of water and nitrogen in soil usually restrict plant growth. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different amounts of supplemental irrigation at different growth stages and application of different rates of nitrogen fertilizer on grain yield and water productivity of wheat cultivars. a field experiment was conducted in the agricultural research station of shah...
