for continues production if field crops in arid and semi arid regions of the world, such as iran, beside of using of drought resistant varieties, water management must also be considered. in this context, the use of tape drip irrigation system could reduce the amount of irrigation water consumption. this study, was conducted to determine the best sowing pattern of sugar beet under type drip irr...

in arid, semiarid, and mediterranean climates, particularly in west asia and north africa, farmers face limited water resources and must develop irrigation management methods to increase crop production while reducing water use. this study examined methods to reduce irrigation water loss and increase maize water productivity at safiabad agricultural research center in dezful, iran in 2007 and 2...

proper management of saline soils needs adequate information about the amount and salt distribution in the root zone. irrigation is one of the factors that control the distribution of salt. this study investigated soil leaching simulation by using hydrus2d software based on the evaporation of soil surface of a land without plant located at shahid chamran university, ahwaz, iran. samples were ta...

in this research, the appropriateness of drainmod-n model was evaluated for the simulation of nitrate transport with subsurface drainage in paddy fields. during a canola growing season from november 2011 to april 2012, the nitrate concentration of drainage water and soil saturation extracts of two depths of 30 and 60 cm was measured in consolidated paddy fields of sari agricultural sciences and...

As more subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) systems are being installed throughout the plains of Texas for cotton production, irrigators are concerned about the high cost of installation and the potential benefits of alternative designs. A field study was conducted at the Texas AgriLife Research facilities at Halfway, Texas, to document the agronomic impacts of distribution uniformities on cotton ...
