Drip Irrigation using a PLC based Adaptive Irrigation System

, 2009
Irrigation is presently the main user of world´s fresh water. Most of it goes to irrigating small plots where it is not feasible to implement full-scale Evapotranspiration based irrigation controllers. The dramatic development of Programmable Logic Controllers, PLCs, and their rather affordable price has made it possible to use them as stand-alone ...

Sugarcane nutrition under organomineral fertilizer, phosphate‐solubilizing bacteria, and reduced phosphate doses

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Sugarcane phosphorus (P) availability is limited in tropical soils, requiring strategies to improve fertilizer efficiency. This study evaluated Bacillus velezensis UFV 3918 (Bv) in combination with an organomineral fertilizer (OF) at reduced monoammonium phosphate (MAP) doses. It showed that Bv + OF + 1/3 MAP achieved soil and plant P levels comparable

Comorbid Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Asthma: Shared Risk Factors and Treatment Implications—An EAACI Task Force Report

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and asthma are prevalent conditions that often coexist. These diseases share common inflammatory mechanisms, such as T‐helper cell 2 (T2)‐high inflammation, driven by interleukin (IL)‐4, IL‐5, and IL‐13 cytokines.

Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Applying phosphorus through drip irrigation systems

California Agriculture, 1976
The disadvantages of clogging drip lines and assumed lack of movement have prevented the application of orthophosphate through drip irrigation systems. Orthosphosphoric acid can be applied without these disadvantages when extreme care is used. Organic phosphates such as glycerophosphate will move farther in soils, are easily applied through the drip ...
