Development and use of crop growth models is an effective tool for agricultural planningand decision making in agricultural industry. Besides, the drought and limited supplies of waterin many areas of the world has increased attention to favourable strategies in farm managementsuch as efficient irrigation and planting methods. The objective of this study was to develop acrop model for safflower...

Under surface irrigation, particularly in clay soils cut-off technique is considered as one of the most practical way in saving irrigation water that traditional farmers could be easily implemented. Such farming way is processing through find out the optimum length of irrigation run at which watering should be stopped instead of irrigation till the tail end of the furrows or borders. Such proce...

Sediment and phosphorus (P) in agricultural runoff can impair water quality in streams, lakes, and rivers. We studied the factors affecting P transfer and transport in irrigated furrows in six freshly tilled fallow fields, 110 to 180 m long with 0.007 to 0.012 m m-1 slopes without the interference of raindrops or sheet flow that occur during natural or simulated rain. The soil on all fields was...

To evaluate the effect of water, tape drip and furrow irrigation methods on the performance components and features of Agria cultivar potato, an experiment was carried out in the agriculture faculty of Kermanshah. Repeated three times, this study was carried out in the form of full random blocks with the main factor of different amounts of irrigation water in three levels (50, 75, and100 percen...

This research was conducted to develop infiltration model and evaluate Omo Kuraz III furrow irrigation scheme performance using three common parameters namely: application efficiency, water storage efficiency distribution uniformity.
