powdery mildew of sugar beet is a common disease in many sugar beet growing areas causing root yield and sugar content reduction. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different irrigation methods on powdery mildew severity in sugar beet. eight susceptible and resistant commercial cultivars were evaluated under sprinkler and furrow irrigation systems in a randomized complete bloc...

The simultaneous paver liquid cement sprinkling system is the combination of a conventional and sprinkler. During operation, sprinkler can be installed onto with use connectors. When paving stabilization aggregate mixture, this sprinkles on working surface. This device effectively solve common quality issues such as formation isolation layer road pollution, result premature hardening pre-sprink...

The development of a coupled crop model (Ador-Crop) and solid set sprinkler irrigation model (Ador-Sprinkler) is reported in this work. The crop model incorporates many of the features developed in the well-known CropWat model. Improvements include the use of thermal time and the input of daily ET0. The solid set sprinkler model applies ballistic theory to determine water distribution resulting...

reduce the amount of water used, resulting in savings Low-pressure sprinkler irrigation systems have the potential to of both water and energy. save energy, but also may aggravate soiland water-management Center-pivot systems with high pressure nozzles reproblems. The objective of this research was to determine the influquire relatively large amounts of energy to develop ence of center-pivot sp...

Schirmer Engineering Corporation (Schirmer Engineering) was retained by The Fire Protection Research Foundation (FPRF) as a Project Consultant for the project titled “Data Needs for NFPA Automatic Sprinkler Committees.” This report investigates the NFPA 13, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems (2007 Edition) requirements for dry pipe systems having a maximum volume of 500 gallons ...

use of the double ring infiltrometer to measure soil water infiltration in center pivot irrigation systems is not an accurate approach; because the real conditions of infiltration under center pivot sprinklers is different from what happens in the double ring. in this study, the infiltration parameters were determined under real conditions of a center pivot system. for this purpose, a single ri...

the variety of sprinkler devices available for the center pivot and linear irrigation systems has been increased dramatically in recent years. in the current study, via conducting some indoor experiments, one type of fixed pad spray sprinkler (d3000) and two types of moving pad spray sprinklers (r3000 and s3000) with various configurations (working pressure, nozzle size and type of deflector pa...

in the water-limited areas, the great challenge of the agricultural sector is more production from less water that it can be achieved by increasing water productivity. a field study was conducted to compare various cultivars of wheat to water using line source sprinkler irrigation at gorgan research station in 2005-2006. the effect of variable water supply on yield and wue of six wheat cultivar...
