Advances and prospects: biotechnologically improving crop water use efficiency.
Bio-water saving can be defined as the reduction of crop water consumption employing biological measures. This is the focus of efforts to save water in agriculture. Different levels of water-use efficiency (WUE) have been developed. The genetic diversity of WUE has been confirmed in several crops. WUE is the basis of bio-watering and physiological WUE is the key. The degree to develop physiolog...
متن کاملEfficiency of superabsorbents in improving water productivity
Agricultural residues and various other materials are currently being used as additives to improve the physical and chemical properties of soil. Iran is located in an arid and semiarid region, so using strategies to reduce water use will reduce the problem water scarcity. The use of superabsorbent to increase water uptake and retention is one of the solutions that have been applied to improve w...
