Development and Testing of a Low‐Cost Soil Moisture Sensor for Real‐Time Irrigation Scheduling
ABSTRACT Effective irrigation scheduling is essential for improved water management in irrigated areas, with soil moisture monitoring recognized as one of the most effective methods. However, challenges such as the high cost of sensors and the difficulties in monitoring large areas hinder their practical application, particularly for smallholder ...

ABSTRACT Forage production in semi‐arid regions of Brazil is limited by water deficit. This study aimed to identify the most adapted and efficient production systems and define their agricultural calendars for the semi‐arid region of Brazil. Twenty‐nine production arrangements that included different cropping conditions, plant density, plant cycles ...

ABSTRACT The effects of different irrigation methods (center pivot [CPI], subsurface drip [SDI] and furrow irrigation [FI]) and levels (full irrigation treatment [FIT], 80% FIT, 60% FIT and rainfed) on yield, crop evapotranspiration (ETc), ET‐water productivity (WPET) and drought stress index for leaf expansion (SIE) and photosynthesis (SIP) of maize ...

Cassava Hay Inclusion Improves Fermentation Profile and Quality of Spineless Forage Cactus Silage
This study evaluated the chemical composition, fermentation profile, microbial populations, aerobic stability, and fermentative losses of spineless forage cactus silage supplemented with varying levels of cassava hay (0%, 7.5%, 15.0%, 22.5%, and 30.0% on a fresh matter basis).

Abstract Estimating exchange rates of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) at high temporal resolution over extended periods remains challenging, particularly when using heat as a tracer in highly dynamic environments such as tidal systems. Currently available heat transport models struggle to accurately quantify SGD exchange rates in these settings ...
