Salt Tolerant Forages for the Reuse of Saline Drainage Water
Current practices for handling drainage water in the western San Joaquin Valley (WSJV) are not sustainable. The soil quality of 300,000 ha of land in the WSJV is adversely affected by the presence of shallow or perched water (0 to 1.5 m). Without a means of disposing of drainage water, increasing amounts of farmland in the WSJV will become salt impaired, and will be removed from production. Usi...
متن کاملEffect of irrigation with saline water on ion homeostasis and forage dry yield in Alfalfa ecotypes application of high salty water for Alfalfa plants irrigation
Salinity stress is a brutal environmental stress which decreases the yield production of plants. Questions rise on which of the ionic stress or lack of water has deleterious effects on plants forage dry yield. Also, questions remain on whether the K+ reduction or Na+ accumulation is more important in forage dry yield reduction under salinity stress. The present experiment was conducted to answe...
متن کاملAlfalfa Sprout Irrigation Water
Salmonella has been associated with a number of recent outbreaks of foodborne illness involving sprouted seeds. In this research, we addressed the design of sensor components intended for use in a fully automated detection system. A real−time PCR assay was developed to detect Salmonella in sprout irrigation water. Specific detection was achieved by targeting a region of the invasion gene, invA....
متن کاملBiomass accumulation and potential nutritive value of some forages irrigated with saline-sodic drainage water
A controlled study using a sand-tank system was conducted to evaluate 10 forage species (bermudagrass, ‘Salado’ and ‘SW 9720’ alfalfa, ‘Duncan’ and ‘Polo’ Paspalum, ‘big’ and ‘narrow leaf’ trefoil, kikuyugrass, Jose tall wheatgrass, and alkali sacaton). Forages were irrigated with sodium-sulfate dominated synthetic drainage waters with an electrical conductivity of either 15 or 25 dS/m. Forage ...
متن کاملControl of Calcium Sulfate (Gypsum) Scale in Nanofiltration of Saline Agricultural Drainage Water
A methodology for calcium sulfate (gypsum) scale control in nanofiltration of saline waters is presented. The methodology involves the use of both theoretically and experimentally determined parameters. Pitzer’s thermodynamic equations for electrolytes are used to determine the gypsum scaling potential of the feed water based on its ionic composition, whereas the extent of concentration polariz...
