To cope with scarce supplies, deficit irrigation,...
متن کاملMaize response to water, salinity and nitrogen levels: yield-water relation, water-use efficiency and water uptake reduction function
Water, salinity and nitrogen are the major factors affecting maize production in arid and semi-arid areas. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of different water, salinity and nitrogen levels on yield-water relationships, water use, water productivity (WP), water use efficiency (WUE) and water uptake reduction function by maize hybrid SC-704 in a semi-arid area and ...
متن کاملUrban, agricultural, and environmental protection practices for sustainable water quality
Sustainable water management often emphasizes water resource quantity, with focus on availability and use practices. However, only a subset of the available water may be usable when also considering water quality. Water quality management is examined within three broad sectors—urban, agriculture, and environmental systems—to investigate how water quality sustainability (WQS) is defined by each ...
