in the present experiment, the effects of nitrogen and phosphor fertilizer application in two methods of furrow and trickle irrigation on the yield and quality of sugar beet seed cultivar 7233 were studied. the experiment was conducted as a split factorial in a completely randomized block design with three replications during 2003 and 2004 in hamedan province. main plots were allocated to irrig...

water is the most important factor for agriculture development in iran. accordingly the optimal consumptione of water is very important. using pressurized irrigation system is one of the methods to improve agricultural water management. the objecttives of this research were to compare two irrigation methods of furrow and trickle irrigation systems impacts on quantity and quality characters of s...

Use of drip, or trickle, irrigation in agriculture has increased rapidly during the past 20 years. In 1970 approximately 50,000 ha in the United States were under drip irrigation, by 1985 the area had increased to over 300,000 ha (6). Irrigation has been used to deliver fertilizers and pesticides (8,9,14,18,27,28), and there are increasing numbers of studies on the application of nematicidal co...

A trickle irrigation experiment on sugarcane was established in October 1985 on the SASA Experiment Station farm at Shakaskraal. The objectives were to establish suitable operating procedures, to measure cane yield potential, and to study the effects of factors such as fertigation and crop row spacingon yieldsoftrickle irrigated sugarcane. The results ofthe plant and first ratoon crops of this ...

Irrigation practices that are profligate in their use of water have come under closer scrutiny by water managers and the public. Trickle irrigation has the propensity to increase water use efficiency but only if the system is designed to meet the soil and plant conditions. Recently we have provided a software tool, WetUp, to calculate the wetting patterns from trickle irrigation emitters. WetUp...

high groundwater salinity, a high water table and secondary soil salinization are dominant conditions in eastern isfahan province, iran. this region has a low annual rainfall, high annual evaporation demand, saline soils and limited fresh water supplies. to investigate the effects of irrigation deficit and salinity on cantaloupe (cucumis melo l. var. cantalupensis) production, a field experimen...

The saturated hydraulic conductivity of soil is needed for deteriming the agricultural and hydrological processes. The measurement techniques used to estimate such property remain hampered by extensive labor and time constraints. Both emitter discharge rate and steady saturated radius emerged from point source trickle irrigation on the soil surface were used to determine the saturated hydraulic...

Abstract The systems of trickle irrigation offer the potential influential to increase crop yields and have been proven reasonable according engineering agricultural opinion particularly in barren areas. Trickle that offered comparatively lately Arab countries demonstrated save huge amounts water enhance yield. computational program (Trickle Irrigation System Design, TISD) connected with econom...
