ABSTRACT Irrigating and fertilizing (known as fertigating) should be applied more effectively efficiently. Pocket fertigation technology an alternative was developed to achieve those purposes. The main challenge the is determine optimum irrigation water. objective of study optimize water pocket fertigation, particularly in determining optimal soil moisture during growth stage by genetic algorit...

Abstract: Sugarcane cultivar RB961552 was developed by the Breeding Program of Federal University Alagoas, a member university RIDESA. It selected for being highly productive, responsive to fertigation and high leaf biomass excellent inter-row closure. is resistant brown orange rust moderately scald smut diseases.

ABSTRACT Determining the amount of nutrients accumulated by crops is an important tool for defining order in which are taken up and required. However, vary depending on genetic characteristics cultivars, climatic conditions, fertilization, soil management systems. The aim this study was to evaluate influence irrigation strategies doses nitrogen (N) fertigation content accumulation macro micronu...

Shortage of water availability and awareness the need for sustainable resource management have generated a significant increase in use recycled irrigation processing crops harvest products, respectively. As result, systems face challenge neutralizing plant pathogens to reduce risk their dispersal subsequent occurrence diseases with potentially high economic impacts. We evaluated efficacy an inn...

Producers in the northeastern semiarid region of Brazil have been cultivating irrigated corn. The commercialized product comprises mainly green ears and silage. However, irrigation crops for dry grain has questioned regarding costs price competitiveness relation to same non-irrigated cultivated other regions. In recent years, use drip tapes fertigation spread among corn producers region. aim th...

Interest in forward osmosis (FO) research has rapidly increased in the last decade due to problems of water and energy scarcity. FO processes have been used in many applications, including wastewater reclamation, desalination, energy production, fertigation, and food and pharmaceutical processing. However, the inherent disadvantages of FO, such as lower permeate water flux compared to pressure ...
