In this study, the optimum irrigation depths for corn grain production under different conditions, i.e. maximum grain yield production and maximum benefit under limited land and water conditions, were determined under sprinkler irrigation in Bajgah (15 km. north of Shiraz). The results showed that, the optimum depth of irrigation for maximum grain yield production was 77.0 cm. Because of low pr...

In order to study the effect of deficit irrigation at reproductive growth stages on water use efficiency and drought tolerance of four sunflower cultivars, including Azargol, Allstar, Alison and Euroflor, an experiment was conducted during 2007 growing season at experimental field of Agricultural Faculty of Bu-Ali Sina University, Hamadan, Iran. The experiment was a split plot based on randomiz...

Deficit Irrigation (DI) is a fundamental solution for efficient water use in irrigated lands under conditions of water scarcity. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential for water saving and yield improvements of two greenhouse tomato cultivar (Shaqayeq and Shahrzad) with use of three DI treatment ,50, ,75, and ,100, percent of full irrigation along with surface and subsurface...

In order to investigate the effect of different irrigation regimes on some agronomic and physiological characters of three chickpea cultivars (Jam, 301 and Pirooz), a field experiment was conducted in 1998 at the Agricultural Research Farm of Tabriz University, Tabriz, Iran. A split plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design with three replications was used, in which irrigation...

Four partial root zone drying (FULL, 1PRD50, 2PRD50, 3PRD50) treatments were investigated on tomato characteristics and water use efficiency using completely randomized design with five replications. In the control treatment (Full irrigation), all water requirement of plant was met in the root area equally during the growing season. Roots in 1PRD50, 2PRD50 and 3PRD50 treatments were divided int...
