At present, the shortage of water resources has become a serious constraint to the further development of social economy. The optimal allocation of multi-water resources is valuable for agricultural water management in arid and semi-arid regions. However, traditional deterministic programming does not solve the complex water resources allocation in irrigation systems. Furthermore, previous allo...

in the water-limited areas, the great challenge of the agricultural sector is more production from less water that it can be achieved by increasing water productivity. a field study was conducted to compare various cultivars of wheat to water using line source sprinkler irrigation at gorgan research station in 2005-2006. the effect of variable water supply on yield and wue of six wheat cultivar...

Improving winter wheat grain yield and water use efficiency (WUE) with minimum irrigation is very important for ensuring agricultural and ecological sustainability in the Northern China Plain (NCP). A three-year field experiment was conducted to determine how single irrigation can improve grain yield and WUE by manipulating the "sink-source" relationships. To achieve this, no-irrigation after s...

the main purpose of this research was to analyze agricultural water management problems (awmp) in three contexts of: water source, water conveyance and at the farm level, in zarrindasht county, fars province. the research was carried out based on a survey method with a questionnaire compiled for collection of data. questionnaire's reliability was confirmed through a computation of cronbach...

in some regions of isfahan, although there is no soil and water salinity limitations, quality of sugar beet root is very low because of using high amount of irrigation water. a study was conducted to determine the relation between low irrigation and quality and quantity of sugar beet. in this study, a line source irrigation system for six water use treatments (from 10770 to 8554 m3/hec) was use...

Phosphorus (P) in irrigation runoff may enrich offsite water bodies and streams and be influenced by irrigation water quality and antecedent soil surface conditions. Runoff, soil loss, and P fractions in runoff using reverse osmosis (RO) water or mixed RO and well water (RO/ Tap) were studied in a laboratory sprinkler study to evaluate water source effects on P transport. A top- or subsoil Port...
