proper irrigation scheduling, i.e. timely and adequate irrigation is an important prerequisite to profitable crop production. high temperatures along with soil moisture deficits are some of the main limiting factors for canola (b. napus l.) production in dry land cropping systems. these factors negatively affect the formation of pods during the flowering stage, resulting in decrease in seed yie...

the purpose of this study is evaluation and improvement of production functions to estimate alfalfa yields under different deficit irrigations conditions and determination of “production of yield - water use” in qazvin plain. this investigation was applied by factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design with four water treatments including e4, e3, e2, and e1, respectively, equal t...

introduction: evaporation and evapotranspiration are two major components of hydrological cycle which are very important for agricultural studies as well as water resources management. so far, various methods have been addressed for the estimation of daily reference crop evapotranspiration (et0). among them, fao penman-montieth 56 (pmf-56) (allen et al., 1998) is widely used as a standard metho...

saving in irrigation water is important in the early season of sugar beet. the effect of early season deficit irrigation on the sugar beet growth indexes was investigated in kabotarabad agricultural research station (esfahan) in 1998. the soil texture was silty clay and the experiment design was randomized complete block with 4 relications. six irrigation regimes were applied after. 1) 100 mm (...

mechanisms of tolerance to water deficiency stress for introducing sunflower hybrid was investigated by a two-factor experiment as a split plot design based on rcbd was at the research station in alborz province, hashtgerd region, iran in 2013. irrigation rates (irrigation after 50, 100 and 150 mm cumulative evaporation from class a evaporation pan) were considered in the main plots and sunflow...

In this study effect of irrigation managements including irrigation after 100 and 200 mm pan evaporation as normal and deficit irrigation respectively was investigated in Roselle plants. Effects of humic acid (including 0 and 4 kg ha-1) and mycorrhizal inoculants (including Glomus versiforme (GV) and Rhizophagus irregularis (RI)) were also studied on growth, yield and mycorrhizal symbiosis inde...

in order to study drought tolerance indices and to introduce tolerant maize hybrids in drought conditions, an experiment was conducted at the experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, in 2009. the experiment was carried out using split-plot in a randomized complete block design (crbd) with three replications. the main plots consisted of three levels of irrigation regimes (irri...
