Development and Testing of a Low‐Cost Soil Moisture Sensor for Real‐Time Irrigation Scheduling

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
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 ...

Hydrology–Soil–Vegetation Element Interactions in the Largest Single-Port Artesian Irrigation Area of Asia

Land
Climate change and anthropogenic activities have increased the complexity of hydrology–soil–vegetation interactions in arid-region irrigation areas. Therefore, studies on the spatiotemporal characteristics of these interactions can greatly benefit the ...

Transforming Agricultural Water Management Through the Water–Energy–Food Nexus: Trends, Opportunities, Barriers and Solutions

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural water management (AWM) is increasingly transitioning towards transformative thinking, where interconnected sectors, including water, energy and food, are managed holistically. Trends point towards cross‐sectoral and harmonised strategies to optimise water use efficiency and productivity, integrate renewable energy, promote ...

Management Strategies and Agricultural Calendars for Forage Production in Semi‐Arid Brazil Using AquaCrop

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
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 ...
