in order to study the responses of grain yield of chickpea to drought stress and application methods of nitrogen fertilizer, an experiment carried out as split-plot at campus of agriculture and natural resources, razi university, kermanshah, iran, during 2009-10 and 2010-11. the supplementary irrigation at three levels (1. without irrigation, 2. one irrigation at flowering, 3. two irrigations a...

water is the most limiting factor in irrigated agriculture, mainly in mediterranean environments, as in the case of southwest spain. in this area, almond is one of the most valuable crops due to its high drought tolerance. this work examines the crop coefficients (kc) based on four drainage lysimeters installed in an experimental young almond orchard. complementary, two deficit-irrigation treat...

sesame could be an appropriate oilseed crop for water limited environments. this research was aimed at studying growth, leaf chlorophyll fluorescence, proline content, yield and yield components of sesame cultivars under different moisture regimes. a 4-replicate split plot rcbd field experiment was conducted at the lavark research farm, college of agriculture, isfahan university of technology, ...

introduction: nowadays, due to lack of water resources and increasing demand for water, agricultural water planning issues need further consideration. with proper planning and determination of irrigation depth and time, the effects of stress and yield loss on the plants are reduced. irrigation scheduling is one of the most important factors in crop’s quality and quantity. the main objective of ...

with population growing throughout the world, it is necessary to optimize water use,especially in agricultural lands. in order to conduct technical and economical evaluation ofdrip and furrow irrigation methods under deficit irrigation of cotton, a field experiment wascarried out during 2010 growing season at experimental farm of orzoueyeh agricultural andnatural resources research center in ke...

in this study, the effect of four levels of supplemental irrigation on water use efficiency and yield of three lentil cultivars (kimia, ill6037 and qazvin) in two years 2013 and 2014 was conducted. experiments were performed in water engineering group research station of agriculture and natural resources campus of kermanshah razi university using by available pots as two factorial agented and w...

Due to climate change, the application of water saving strategies is of particular interest. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of deficit irrigation (DI) and partial root-zone drying (PRD) techniques on the crop water stress index (CWSI), water use efficiency (WUE), and quality parameters in processing tomatoes grown in open field conditions in a Mediterranean climate. Two culti...
