A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of planting pattern and irrigation system on antioxidant activity of wheat and Persian clover. The experiment was carried out as a two-factor factorial with three replications. The first factor was irrigation system (conventional and partial root-zone irrigation) and the second was planting pattern (sole wheat, sole Persian clover, alterna...

this study was conducted to evaluate the current management of furrow and border irrigation systems in the dez irrigation network. of the eight farms studied, three grew wheat and one each grew corn, sugar beets, lettuce, sesame and mung beans. the study found water application efficiency in the five farms with furrow irrigation systems to be 25.8% and for the three farms with border irrigation...

for the proper use of water resources in agriculture, it is necessary to provide appropriate irrigation system to supply crop water requirement. in the present research, using a hierarchical analysis, different types of irrigation systems were evaluated and prioritized on 1150 hectares of agricultural land of etka organization ​​ located in dorud, iran. hierarchical analysis process is one of t...

Pressurized sand media filters are commonly used in drip irrigation systems to prevent emitter clogging. However, the performance of these may be improved with more information about retention solids at different bed depths under filter operation conditions and water sources. In this study, experiments a scaled were conducted clog two filtration velocities (30 60 m h−1) two-particle types (inor...

introduction: iran is a vast country with limited water resources. iran is located in arid areas and average precipitation is estimated to be 250 mm. in recent years, water shortage has created many problems for iranian farmers. in these conditions, surface and ground water use is excessive. high consumption, low irrigation efficiency, bad time and geographical distribution of precipitation, po...

INTRODUCTION Occasionally, urologists may see patients requiring temporary bladder irrigation at hospitals without stocks of specialist irrigation apparatus. One option is to transfer the patient to a urology ward, but often there are outstanding medical issues that require continued specialist input. Here, we describe an improved system for delivering temporary bladder irrigation by utilizing ...

This research was designed to evaluate and compare the applicability of two different types of irrigation including traditionally (surface irrigation) and simple sub-surface drip irrigation (using pricked-pipe covered with plastic cloth). Two plots containing 39 pistachio trees with 720 m2 area were selected in Rafsanjan, Iran. Both plots were irrigated using exactly the same quantity and quali...

The availability of water is a global issue which is predicted to become more pronounced in the future. As a large and relatively dry continent Australia is presented with a series of challenges within the agriculture sector. As a result, the adoption of appropriate, efficient and effective irrigation systems is an important element for future sustainability. In various Australian growing regio...
