Sustainability of quality fruit production in Indian jujube is adversely affected by improper irrigation and nutrient management. A field study comprising four levels (drip at 0.8, 0.6 0.4 pan evaporation (E0) surface 1.0 IW/CPE with 50 mm depth) three (100% RDF, 75% RDF+25% RDF as vermicompost 50% RDF+50% vermicompost) was conducted during 2018-19 (11 months) on plant. Results showed that tall...

In the Mesilla Valley of southern New Mexico, furrow irrigation is the primary source of water for growing onions. As the demand for water increases, there will be increasing competition for this limited resource. Water management will become an essential practice used by farmers. Irrigation ef®ciency (IE) is an important factor into improving water management but so is economic return. Therefo...

Sandy fields have been reclaimed to exploit the grain production potential in northwestChina. A 2-year statistically replicated field study was conducted to determine the effects ofmulched drip irrigation on soil water, soil nitrate, shoot root growth and yields of maize on asandy field in the Hetao irrigation district. Treatments included border irrigation (BI), fullymulched drip irrigation (F...

The water use efficiency under conventional flood method of irrigation, which is predominantly practised in Indian agriculture, is very low due to substantial conveyance and distribution losses. Recognizing the fast decline of irrigation water potential and increasing demand for water from different sectors, a number of demand management strategies and programmes have been introduced to save wa...

the effects of grafting under conditions of deficit irrigation, on content of minerals leaf and root, evalutate in a field experiment under deficit irrigation was conducted with split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications, in the research field of higher education institution imam khomeini (ra) under the ministry of agriculture in karaj, during 2014. in this study, ...

The effect of irrigation on the abundance of Empoasca vitis (Göthe) populations was investigated in four vineyards located in northeastern Italy. In two experiments, we compared leafhopper population densities in plots irrigated (micro-spray irrigation system) or nonirrigated. In another experiment, we studied the effect of various irrigation systems on E. vitis populations over two successive ...

Fertilizer recommendations for peach cultivation in the southeastern United States were developed decades ago and may not reflect trees’ needs under current practices. Adequate fertilization young trees induces a balanced vegetative/reproductive growth, ensures efficient resource use, is environmentally sound. Droughts region are becoming more common. Supplemental irrigation peaches from time o...

Realizing the internal flow visualization inside the drip irrigation emitter is the basis of optimizing the labyrinth path structure and promoting its anti-clogging capability. The Computational FluidDynamics (CFD)method has become an effective approach to research the water movement in the labyrinth path of the drip irrigation emitter. In this paper, the standard k-ε model and the Large Eddy S...

abstract this study was conducted to determine the impacts of plastic mulch, drip irrigation method and different amount of water and their interactions on yield, water use efficiency (wue) and quality characteristic of tomato (mobile cultivar). the study was conducted in torogh agricultural research station, razavi khorasan province. the study was done during 2007-2008. experimental design was...

There is a need to optimize water-nitrogen (N) applications to increase seed cotton yield and water use efficiency (WUE) under a mulch drip irrigation system. This study evaluated the effects of four water regimes [moderate drip irrigation from the third-leaf to the boll-opening stage (W1), deficit drip irrigation from the third-leaf to the flowering stage and sufficient drip irrigation thereaf...
