Irrigation scheduling: advantages and pitfalls of plant-based methods.

This paper reviews the various methods available for irrigation scheduling, contrasting traditional water-balance and soil moisture-based approaches with those based on sensing of the plant response to water deficits. The main plant-based methods for irrigation scheduling, including those based on direct or indirect measurement of plant water status and those based on plant physiological respon...

IRRIGATION SCHEDULING ON SAND-BASED CREEPING BENTGRASS Evaluating ET Estimation, Capacitance Sensors and Deficit Irrigation in the Upper Midwest

During the 2003 and 2004 growing seasons, research was conducted on a 'Providence' creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) sand green at the University of Minnesota St. Paul campus to evaluate the use of ECH20 capacitance soil moisture sensors and FAO 56 ET (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Evapotranspiration) estimation in scheduling turfgrass irrigation by applying...

Regulated deficit irrigation and density of Erythroneura spp. (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) on grape.

This study looked at regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) on leafhoppers in the genus Erythroneura (Erythroneura elegantula Osborn, or western grape leafhopper, and Erythroneura variabilis Beamer) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), which are serious pests of cultivated grape (Vitis vinifera L.) in California. RDI is an irrigation strategy that reduces irrigation during a critical point in the phenology o...
