The water use efficiency under conventional flood method of irrigation, which is predominantly practised in Indian agriculture, is very low due to substantial conveyance and distribution losses. Recognizing the fast decline of irrigation water potential and increasing demand for water from different sectors, a number of demand management strategies and programmes have been introduced to save wa...

Iran is a large producer of agricultural products. Irrigation water resources are limited and the water use efficiency is low. The micro irrigation system (MIS) is a versatile management tool that can increase water productivity. Although micro irrigation has a lot of advantages, some of its disadvantages are its difficult and time-consuming design. Economical analysis of the design is one of t...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the volume of remaining filling material after passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and orange oil in mesial canals of mandibular molars, with and without isthmus. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty mesial roots of mandibular molars were divided according to the presence or absence of isthmus. Canals were prepared and fil...

abstract this study was conducted to determine the impacts of different drip irrigation method and amount of water on yield and water use efficiency of tomato in varamin agricultural research center, iran. the study was done during two years. experimental design was randomized complete blocks design (rcbd) in split plot with three replications. three different drip irrigation method; surface dr...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to use micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) scanning to evaluate the efficacy of sonic and passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) on calcium hydroxide (Ca[OH](2)) removal and to measure the volume and percentage of Ca(OH)(2) remaining in the root canal system. METHODOLOGY The root canals of 46 extracted human mandibular molar teeth were prepared with rota...

Embedded System based submersible motor control to prevent it from over load, dry run and single phasing using GSM for Agriculture Irrigation is the work done in this project which can be used to control and monitor the submersible motor used for agriculture irrigation using GSM network. This project provides the development of mobile phone as remote control application for submersible motor pu...

The effect of irrigation on the abundance of Empoasca vitis (Göthe) populations was investigated in four vineyards located in northeastern Italy. In two experiments, we compared leafhopper population densities in plots irrigated (micro-spray irrigation system) or nonirrigated. In another experiment, we studied the effect of various irrigation systems on E. vitis populations over two successive ...

During 2015, vines receiving season-long drip irrigation delivered into the lower root zone via hard plastic tubes yielded 70 % of commercial production while receiving only 15% of the water as the vines receiving full commercial rates of surface drip irrigation. Vines receiving direct root-zone (DRZ) irrigation at rates reduced to 60, 30, and 15% of commercial drip irrigation (DI) produced ind...
