WATER REQUIREMENTS FOR IRRIGATED SUGARCANE UNDER TRICKLE IRRIGATION [PDF]
Effect of irrigation water requirements and row spacing of surface and subsurface trickle irrigated sugarcane on soil moisture distribution, sugarcane yield, sugar percentage and water use efficiency were studied. There are three different lateral distance between plants (L) used in the experiment; 0.75 m, 1.00 m and 1.25 m under four irrigation ...

Global modeling of irrigation water requirements [PDF]
Currently, almost 90% of the global water consumption is for irrigation purposes, and more than 40% of the crops are produced under irrigated conditions. In order to assess the future water and food situation, it is therefore necessary to model irrigation water requirements.
