Sustainable conjunctive use of groundwater for additional irrigation
Farmers in the Indus Basin, Pakistan have generally switched to groundwater for additional water supplies due to the irregular supply of irrigation water; currently over 50% of the agricultural land in the basin is at least partially irrigated by tubewells. These wells pump fresh groundwater, which essentially is the result of massive leakage from irrigation canals into the originally saltwater...
متن کاملSustainable agriculture and the production of biomass for energy use
Modern bioenergy is seen as a promising option to curb greenhouse gas emissions. There is, however, a potential competition for land and water between bioenergy and food crops. Another question is whether biomass for energy use can be produced in a sustainable manner given the current conventional agricultural production practices. Other than the land and water competition, this question is oft...
متن کاملWastewater Use in Irrigated Agriculture: Management Challenges in Developing Countries
Cities in developing countries are experiencing unparalleled growth and rapidly increasing water supply and sanitation coverage that will continue to release growing volumes of wastewater. In many developing countries, untreated or partially treated wastewater is used to irrigate the cities’ own food, fodder, and green spaces. Farmers have been using untreated wastewater for centuries, but grea...
متن کاملImproving Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture
In this review, we present the recent developments and future prospects of improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in crops using various complementary approaches. These include conventional breeding and molecular genetics, in addition to alternative farming techniques based on no-till continuous cover cropping cultures and/or organic nitrogen (N) nutrition. Whatever the mode of N fertilization...
متن کاملFuzzy rules for fuzzy $overline{X}$ and $R$ control charts
Statistical process control ($SPC$), an internationally recognized technique for improving product quality and productivity, has been widely employed in various industries. $SPC$ relies on the use of control charts to monitor a manufacturing process for identifying causes of process variation and signaling the necessity of corrective action for the process. Fuzzy data exist ubiquitously in the ...
