The aim of this work was to analyse the influence of soil water content and distribution on fruit quality in 5-year-old ‘Manzanilla de Sevilla’ olive trees in pots subjected to different irrigation treatments for 3 years (2007-2009). The experiment was carried out near Seville, in southwest Spain. Four water treatments were considered: 1) T0, trees were under dry farming conditions except for s...

A field experiment was carried out during 2009-11 on a sandy loam soil of IARI, New Delhi on wheat with four levels of irrigation (rainfed, irrigations to replenish 30, 60 and 100% moisture deficit from field capacity) as main plot factors and four levels of nitrogen (0, 30, 60 and 120 kg N/ha) as subplot factors in a split plot design. The soil moisture storage in the profile showed inverse re...

partial rootzone drying (prd) is a new irrigation technique which improves water use efficiency without significant yield reduction in grape. to study the effects of partial rootzone drying and green pruning on yield and yield quality of thompson seedless grape a split plot experiment with randomized complete block design and three replications was conducted. the experiment was performed in tak...

this study was performed to investigate the effect of different levels of irrigation water applied in tape drip irrigation on yield, seed yield components, oil yield, seed oil percent, and seed water use efficiency (wue) of two canola varieties in behbahan agriculture research station in 2009 and 2010 seasons. the experiment was performed in split plots as a randomized complete block design wit...

for a determination of optimum levels of water and nitrogen fertilizer, as regards corn yield and nitrate movement in soil, a split-plot experiment, using a randomized complete block design of three replications was conducted in safiabad agricultural research center, on a silty clay loam soil. three irrigation levels (50, 75, and 100% of water requirement) and three nitrogen fertilizer levels (...

Problem statement: This experiment was carried out for study the effects of chemical and biological fertilizers and interaction between them on some physiological characteristic and yield and its components of seed corn in two different irrigation. Approach: The experiment was conducted in a split plot factorial with completely randomized block design using four replications. Sub plots consiste...

Investigation of different irrigation methods on plants is necessary due to limited water resources and the increasing need for food products. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of sprinkler and drip irrigation systems and hormones on morphological and physiological characteristics of potato. Treatments included sprinkler and drip irrigation systems and hormones (gibbere...

In most wheat growing moderate regions and especially in the north of Iran climate, is affected grain filling by several physical and abiotic stresses. In this region, grain filling often occurs when temperatures are increasing and moisture supply is decreasing. The experiment was designed in RCBD with split plot arrangements with four replications. Four irrigation treatments included (I0) no i...

abstract the irrigation water quality is not suitable for crop production in most regions of iran. it is estimated that almost six bcm/year of saline water enter to the rivers, in iran. the saline water can potentially use for growing of tolerant crops with a specific management on the agriculture practice. one of the management methods is the conjunction use of fresh and saline water. in this ...
