this research was conducted at torogh agricultural research station in khorasan-e razavi province to determine the impact of irrigation cutoff at different growth stages and percentage of water use on the yield and water use efficiency (wue) of wheat cultivars using sprinkler irrigation. the study was done from 2006-2008. the experimental design was a randomized complete block design with a str...

Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) is commonly used during different phenological stages of fruit growth and development in almond trees to reduce the amount of irrigation water applied without or with only very small reductions in yield. Therefore, to study the effects of deficit and cutoff irrigation during different phenological stages of fruit growth and development in almond cv. “Mamaei” p...

one of the most important goals of sugar beet cultivation is to achieve high seedling emergence and establishment under water deficit conditions. in this experiment irrigation of the seed bearing plants was cutoff in four periods of 750, 1000, 1250 and 1500 gdd after schtechlings were planted and the seeds were formed and grown under water stress. the experiment was carried out as a randomized ...

WinSRFR is an integrated software package for analyzing surface irrigation systems. Software functionalities and technical features are described in a companion article. This article documents an example application. The analyzed field is a graded basin (close-ended border) irrigation system. The event analysis tools of WinSRFR are used first to evaluate performance of the irrigation system and...

abstract optimal management of water and nutrient could consider as effective on farm method to reduce pollution because agriculture is none point pollution. in this research, an optimal model was presented to reduce nitrate loss in furrow fertigation. the optimal model contains four simulation models for predicting runoff, deep percolation, nitrate concentration in runoff and nitrate concentra...

Closed-end furrows are commonly used to irrigate crop in northern part of China. The irrigation performance of furrow in this area is often low. The objectives of this paper are to verify reliability of infiltration parameters and Manning roughness estimated with SIPAR_ID software and present an optimized method for design of closed-end furrow system. The study consisted of field experiments an...

This paper evaluates the impact of access to groundwater on poverty using data from rural India. The estimation exploits the fact that the technology required to access groundwater changes exogenously due to constraints imposed by laws of physics at a depth of eight meters. I find that rural poverty in areas where depth from surface is below the cutoff is 9 to10 percent higher. Using survey dat...
