Effect of irrigation and nitrogen application on water productivity and performance of Cotton (Gossypium sp.)
An experiment was conducted at research farm, Agricultural research sub-station, Hanumangarh, a
unit of Swami Keshwanand Rajasthan Agricultural University, Bikaner during Kharif season, 2016 to
study the effect of water ...
Optimizing cotton irrigation regime using climatic data from mini weather station via evapotranspiration in the Fergana Valley, Uzbekistan (in Russian)
Irrigated agriculture is the backbone of Central Asian economies and efficient
irrigation management is of crucial importance to the sustainable crop production. The ET-based irrigation scheduling method has potential to ...
Developing scenarios to assess sunflower and soybean yield under different sowing dates and water regimes in the Bekaa valley (Lebanon): Simulations with Aquacrop
In a semi-arid environment, the main challenge for crop production is water
limitation in space and in time. Considered as appropriate tools, models are used to
evaluate the effects of water deficit on crop productivity ...
Effect of water and nitrogen levels on yield attributes, water productivity and economics of cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba) in hot arid region
A field experiment was conducted at research farm, Agricultural Research Sub-Station, Hanumangarh, Swami Keshwanand Rajasthan Agricultural University, Bikaner, Rajasthan during Kharif, 2016 to study the effect of water ...
Improved On-farm Irrigation Management for Olive Growing - A Case Study from Morocco
The key success factors of the olive oil market are the enhancement and stabilization of olive yields, improvement of olive oil quality and reduction of production costs. There is great potential for cost reduction in terms ...
Managing Scarce Water Resources in the Drylands of West Asia and North Africa: Review of Joint Research between ICARDA and Japanese Researchers
In the arid regions of the world, maintaining economic and efficient crop production has been among
the most critical challenges. In this context, International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry
Area (ICARDA) ...
Evaluation of deficit irrigation for efficient sheep production from permanent sown pastures in a dry continental climate
Deficit irrigation can be a useful management tool to increase water productivity of forage and sheep
production from pastures in water deprived areas of the world. A three year study compared sheep
production from permanent ...
Relative Yield, Profit and Water Productivity of Crops in IGNP Stage-I
The choice of an appropriate crop and cropping systems is essential for achieving
higher yield, profit and resource use efficiencies. Yield, returns and water productivity
are important factors for determining suitability ...
Editorial: Improving Water Productivity in Dry Areas
About 41% of the Earth’s land area is classified as dryland wherein the farming system is characterized by approximately 300-500 mm of annual rainfall. The low rainfall, which is not only insufficient but irregular, ...
Evaluation of CropSyst model for yield and water productivity of Bt cotton
India is the only country where all the four cultivated species of cotton are grown however, its water and fertilizer use efficiency and yield is below its potential. To introduce improved production methods, knowledge is ...
