in order to study the interrelations of photosynthetic rate and surfaces and leaf proline content with yield and yield components of safflower under different irrigation regimes, a field experiment in a split plot arrangement under a ranomized complete block design with four replication was performed at lavark reasrch farm, isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran in 2007. two irrigation...

Agriculture plays a key role in the management of water use. Especially in Greece, irrigation is an essential element of agricultural production and agricultural water use has a substantial share in total water use. The presented study illustrates the key features of the IRMA_SYSTEM, a regional, user-friendly computer/mobile-based, open and free modular software for estimating site specific cro...

This work assessed the effects of sustained (during whole berry growth) and regulated (at post-veraison) practices deficit irrigation on water relations, yield components quality in a commercial vineyard ‘Crimson Seedless’ table grapes. For this, five treatments were established during complete season (from April to October): (i) Control (CTL) irrigated 110% crop evapotranspiration (ETc); (ii) ...

The canopy temperature is a promising methodology for deficit irrigation scheduling. This measurement used to calculate the crop water stress index (CWSI), which needs estimation of non-water baseline (NWSB). In olive orchards, NWSB changed at different times day and throughout season. aim this work was evaluate simplified estimating allow reducing costs facilitate CWSI estimation. experiment p...

effects of seed priming by salicylic acid on some morpho-physiologic characteristics and yield of cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.) cultivar “parastou” was investigated under water deficit. experiment was conducted as a split block design with 3 replications in 2008-2009 at research farm of zanjan university. factors were including drought stress as a main factor in 2 levels (irrigation, water defi...

Determining water-yield relationship, water use efficiency, seasonal crop and pan coefficients for alfalfa in a semiarid region with high altitude. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 16: 482-492 A field study was conducted to determine effects of seasonal deficit irrigation on plant dry forage yield and water use efficiency of alfalfa for a 2-year peri...

An irrigation scheduling model (ISM) consisting of a database management system (DBMS), model base and graphical user interface (GUI) was developed for performing irrigation scheduling under various management options for both single and multiple ®elds. The ISM is based on a daily water balance approach and uses climatological, crop and soil data as input. Depending on the availability of clima...
