Improving Cotton Yield in Coastal Saline-alkali Soils Using Mulching and Ridge-furrow Cultivation
【Objective】 Along with drought, soil salinity is a main abiotic factor limiting crop growth worldwide. Improving cultivation to alleviate salinity stress is an alternative method to safeguard agricultural production in saline soils. The aim of this paper

WATER REQUIREMENTS AND IRRIGATION SCHEDULING IN OLIVE
Accurate determination of crop water needs is a prerequisite for adequate irrigation management. Contrary to the wealth of information regarding water requirements (ET) of the major herbaceous crops, the ET of tree crops such as olives has been less studied. We present here two approaches to determining olive ETc.

The effect of irrigation uniformity on irrigation water requirements
Irrigated agriculture is the largest user of water in South Africa. Due to the limited amount of water resources, the efficient and equitable use of water is of paramount importance. This can only be achieved through effective design, maintenance and management of irrigation systems.

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.

Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Minimising the environmental impacts of irrigation by good scheduling [PDF]
Irrigation constitutes a major user of water resources at a time, and in places, where resources are at their lowest. Also, by maintaining the soil in a wetter state, it increases the annual drainage, which can affect the leaching of nitrates into the
