A sprinkler irrigation system was tested to assess its efficacy for volatilizing organic chemicals in pumped groundwater. In field tests involving the analysis of more than 250 samples collected from beneath a spray irrigation system, removal rates of ethylene dibromide (EDB), 1,1,2-trichloroethylene (TCE), 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA), and carbon tetrachloride (CT) in samplers placed 0.5 m abov...

evaluation of any irrigation system consists of analyzing the measurable performance of the system in real conditions as well as during the normal operation of the farm. irrigation evaluation is a management tool that allows the system manager to make the best use of what is available. unfortunately, in most regions of iran, after the implementation of irrigation systems their performance is no...

Irrigated agriculture is dependent on an adequate water supply of usable quality. Water used for irrigation can vary greatly in quality depending upon type and quality of dissolved salts. Salts are present in irrigation water in relatively small but significant amounts. The problems that result very both and kind, degree and modified by soil, climate and crop. The aim this paper is to monitor t...

Traditional water-saving irrigation management turns on water pump in a settled interval decided by grower’s experience. The method just saves water on the back of losing yield. In order to result the problem, a kind of greenhouse efficient irrigation management system based on Evapotranspiration has been developed. The system includes greenhouse environmental monitoring subsystem, irrigation a...

Excessive, wasted water has prompted the creation of the Top 10 Water Challenges of Nebraska [1]. 70% of the world’s water usage is related to agriculture [7], more efficient irrigation solutions promise a large benefit for farmers, consumers and the environment. Through a USGS grant, the Cyber-Physical Networking Lab at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has pledged to complete an autonomous i...

the drilling is well known as one of the most common hole making processes in the industry.due to close tolerance requirement for drilled holes in the most of work pieces, onlinecontrolling of the diameter of drilled holes seems to be necessary. in the current work, an onlinedimensional controlling system was developed for drilling process. doing this, drilling processwas executed in different ...

A simulation model was developed to estimate the effect of deficit irrigation upon crop yield. The model was designed to provide relative yield estimates for numerous combinations of irrigation system, crop growth and irrigation management parameters. A daily soil moisture balance was used to predict evaporation and transpiration from which crop yields were estimated. Gross irrigation water req...

Automatic irrigation systems usually conveniently protect landscape investment. While conventional irrigation systems are known to be inefficient, automated ones have the potential to optimize water usage. In fact, there is a new generation of irrigation systems that are smart in the sense that they monitor the weather, soil conditions, evaporation and plant water use, and automatically adjust ...
