sugarcane, which has high water requirements, is grown in khuzestan province (iran). climate and optimizing the use of water is very important to sustainable cultivation of sugarcane. studies of water requirements for sugar cane in khuzestan show that in parts of sugarcane agro-industry, the water applied is more than the actual water requirement of the plant. the present study was conducted to...

In the study, Drainmod model was used to compare measured water table depth fluctuations on the farm with those simulated by the model, also comparison of measured drainage outflow of the farm drains and model simulated was investigated. This study was made in a part of the Irrigation and Drainage Network of ABADAN Date palms. By statistical analysis of the measured and predicted water table de...

in this research, the appropriateness of drainmod-n model was evaluated for the simulation of nitrate transport with subsurface drainage in paddy fields. during a canola growing season from november 2011 to april 2012, the nitrate concentration of drainage water and soil saturation extracts of two depths of 30 and 60 cm was measured in consolidated paddy fields of sari agricultural sciences and...

iran is ranked fourth for saline-sodic soils in asia following china, india and pakistan. therefore, if coupled with waterlogging, drainage would be an inevitable and indispensable activity agriculture in most irrigated parts of iran. drain installation depth is one of the main economic as well as environmental challenges in design and construction of drainage systems. deep pipe drain installat...

introduction: better use of water and soil resources in paddy fields, increase in rice production and farmer's income, installation of subsurface drainage system is necessary. the main goalof these systems, are aeration conditions improvement prevention of water logging, yield increase, land use increase and multiuse of the land. in different countries, installation of subsurface drainage cause...

concerns about nitrate pollution in groundwater and downstream systems cause development of surface water management system to reduce losses of agricultural drainage water nitrate in subsurface drainage using subsurface irrigation from existing drainage lines, drainage water during the growing season and out of season is controlled. the overall objective of this study was to evaluate the effect...

Controlled tile drainage (CTD) can reduce pollutant loading. The Annualized Agricultural Nonpoint Source model (AnnAGNPS version 5.2) was used to examine changes in growing season discharge, sediment, nitrogen, and phosphorus loads due to CTD for a ∼3900-km agriculturally dominated river basin in Ontario, Canada. Two tile drain depth scenarios were examined in detail to mimic tile drainage cont...
