The purpose of this study was to analyse the suitability of the frequency and amount of microsprinkler irrigation under plastic film technology (MSPF) in a greenhouse. This study was aimed at determining the effects of different irrigation frequency and irrigation amount of the MSPF on the quality, yield (Y), and water use efficiency (WUE) of tomato ...

In arid and semiarid regions and under rainfed conditions, water availability is one of the principal ecological constraints that hinder agriculture’s sustainability. The super absorbent polymer (agricultural) is water‐absorbing and is cross‐linked to absorb aqueous solutions through bonding with water molecules.

The pipeline combination scheme is optimized to reduce the cost of irrigation units in an economical microsprinkler system. With the standard number of segments of branch and capillary pipes as the decision variables, the lowest pipe cost per unit irrigation area as the objective function, the maximum pressure difference allowed in the system, the ...

Split application of nutrients improve growth and yield of Huanglongbing‐affected citrus trees
Abstract Citrus production in Florida declined steadily because of Huanglongbing (i.e., HLB, citrus greening) caused by the bacteria Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. The objectives of the study were to determine whether leaf tissue nutrient concentration, tree growth, fruit yield, and juice content were improved with split applications of essential ...

Abstract Reuse of oilfield‐produced water (OPW) for crop irrigation has the potential to make a critical difference in the water budgets of highly productive but drought‐stressed agricultural watersheds. This is the first peer‐reviewed study to evaluate how trace metals in OPW used to irrigate California crops may affect human health.

Analysis of application uniformity coefficient of the microsprinklers
The aim of this study was to analyze water application uniformity and wetness pattern of microsprinklers DAN 2001 and DAN 2002 according to ABNT NBR (2004). The test was conducted in Paulista State University, campus of Jaboticabal, SP. The test time was 1 hour under a constant pressure of 250 kPa and total absence of wind, with 3 replications.
