Diffusion of modern irrigation technologies in Reunion Island : An evolutionary approach [PDF]

, 2007
We develop an evolutionary economics framework designed to assess the diffusion and adoption processes of modern, water-saving, irrigation technologies among heterogeneous farmers over time. This framework is evaluated using a survey on 114 farms located

Impact of Irrigation Strategies on Tomato Root Distribution and Rhizosphere Processes in an Organic System. [PDF]

, 2020
Root exploitation of soil heterogeneity and microbially mediated rhizosphere nutrient transformations play critical roles in plant resource uptake. However, how these processes change under water-saving irrigation technologies remains unclear, especially

Effects of drip and flood irrigation on soil heavy metal migration and associated risks in China

Ecological Indicators
Background: Different irrigation methods have variable effects on the physiochemical properties of soils. The predicted widespread replacement of flood irrigation with drip irrigation will alter the micro-environment of the associated soils in terms of ...

Different irrigation regimes influence soil salt ion and soil nutrient status in Lycium ruthenicum cultivation

Journal of Agricultural Engineering
In arid areas, irrigation with the available brackish water is common because of scarce freshwater resources. However, the impact of different irrigation regimes on soil salt ion and soil nutrient status have rarely been studied in the Qaidam Basin in ...
