Modeling Deficit Irrigation in Alfalfa Production [PDF]
Journal of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering, 1995 A conceptual agronomic model EPIC was extended to consider the effects of salinity in alfalfa production under optimal and water stress irrigation conditions. The extended model was calibrated and validated with observed lysimeter data. The model parameters that affected alfalfa yield and soil salinity the most were wilting point, field capacity ...
