Nitrogen Requirements of Drip-irrigated Peppers

Fertigation Frequency for Subsurface Drip-Irrigated Broccoli

Yosef and Sagiv, 1982; Stark et al., 1983; Burt et al., 1995). However, very few studies have shown a benefit Subsurface-drip irrigation and fertigation with fluid N fertilizer of frequent or continuous fertigation compared with sources offers substantial flexibility for N fertilizer management. Fertiless frequent fertigation. Bar-Yosef and Sagiv (1982) gation events can be scheduled as often a...

Assessing Nitrogen Fertigation Strategies for Drip Irrigated Sugarcane in Southern Africa

Standard nutritional advice for irrigated sugarcane in South Africa and Swaziland is based on soil sample analysis and threshold values that have been determined experimentally over many years with surface-applied fertilisers. Fertilisers are normally applied in solid form during the early stages of crop development and watered in by the next irrigation cycle. The increasing popularity of subsu...

Irrigation and Nitrogen Best Management Practices Under Drip Irrigated Vegetable Production

Plastic mulch and drip irrigation are commonly used in high intensity vegetable production regions such as Florida. Drip irrigation can be much more efficient than sprinkler irrigation since only the root zone of the cropped area is irrigated. However, improper irrigation management can lead to wasted water and leaching of soluble chemicals such as nitrate. In this project, several irrigation t...

Irrigation Strategies to Minimize Nitrate Leaching for Drip Irrigated Tomatoes

Comparison of Nitrogen Fertilization Methods and Rates for Subsurface Drip Irrigated Corn in the Semi-Arid Great Plains

In semi‐arid areas such as western Nebraska, interest in subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) for corn is increasing due to restricted irrigation allocations. However, crop response quantification to nitrogen (N) applications with SDI and the environmental benefits of multiple in‐season (IS) SDI N applications instead of a single early‐season (ES) surface application are lacking. The study was cond...
