Subsurface drip irrigation is defined as application of water below the soil surface through emitters, with discharge rates generally in the same range as surface drip irrigation. It has many advantages over surface drip. To see the response of subsurface drip irrigation on okra yield, a study was conducted at Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, India during 2003 and 2004. Okra (...

optimal use of water resources is essential to decrease cost and maximize available water resources. subsurface drip irrigation can increase irrigation and water use efficiency. this irrigation method distributes water into the soil, leaving the surface of the soil dry and decreasing evaporation. in the design of subsurface drip irrigation (sdi) systems, the dimensions of the wetted onion deter...

abstract this study was conducted to determine the impacts of plastic mulch, drip irrigation method and different amount of water and their interactions on yield, water use efficiency (wue) and quality characteristic of tomato (mobile cultivar). the study was conducted in torogh agricultural research station, razavi khorasan province. the study was done during 2007-2008. experimental design was...

ABSTRACT- A detailed understanding of crop rooting systems will facilitate water use reduction, optimized nutrient uptake and irrigation scheduling more efficiently. A field experiment was conducted during 2005-2006 to investigate sugar beet rooting depth growth, irrigated with three irrigation methods (subsurface drip, surface drip and furrow) and two water qualities (recycled wastewater: EC= ...

given the scarcity of water resources using modern methods of irrigation in agriculture will be inevitable. today, process improvement, development and use of drip irrigation practices as one of the most advanced methods of irrigation in agriculture is increasing. so this study was conducted to determine the impacts of irrigation interval and drip irrigation method and their interactions on yie...

unsustainable harvesting of agricultural water resources in the province of kerman, has caused an annual average of one-meter drop in ground water levels. surface irrigation methods in pistachio trees have low efficiency because of inherent characteristics and its incorrect application, as well as low access to water resource in pistachio regions. therefore under the current critical condition,...
