Performance of Satsuma Mandarin Protected from Freezing Temperatures by Microsprinkler Irrigation [PDF]

HortTechnology, 2000
Several microsprinkler treatments were tested on 5-year-old satsuma mandarin orange ( Citrus unshiu Marc.) trees to compare survivability of trunks and scaffold limbs in severe freezes. Three damaging freeze events occurred during winter, with two in 1995-96 and one in 1996-97.

Microsprinkler Irrigation Influences Clementine Fruit Quality, Leaf Temperature and Physiology

International Journal of Fruit Science, 2006
Abstract The effect on leaf physiology and fruit quality, of two irrigation schedules, daily and twice a week irrigation (control), were tested on ‘SRA 63’ Clementine (Citrus reticulata Blanco) during 2002 and 2003. Micrometeorological data revealed a higher impact of everyday irrigation on air and leaf temperature compared with the control.

Concentrations of some chemical components in white asparagus spears depending on the cultivar and post-harvest irrigation treatments

Folia Horticulturae, 2018
The effect of post-harvest irrigation and genotype on the quality components of white asparagus spears was investigated. The field experiment was conducted in 2003-2008 on a very light soil in the Bydgoszcz region.

Citrus Freeze Protection with Microsprinkler Irrigation during an Advective Freeze

HortScience, 1985
Abstract Microsprinkler irrigation was used to protect young citrus trees during severe advective freeze conditions in Florida during 24–26 Dec. 1983. Three factors (microsprinkler distance from the tree, compass position, and water volume output) influenced the amount of protection or tree damage.

Integrated Soil Salinisation Management Strategies in Agriculture

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
This review synthesises integrated water, agronomic, and biochemical strategies for managing soil salinisation, presenting a decision framework for selecting cost‐effective amendments based on initial soil assessment and long‐term sustainability monitoring. ABSTRACT Soil salinisation poses a global threat to agricultural sustainability, affecting about

Yield and Root Growth Responses of Papaya to Partial Root Volume Irrigation by Drip or Microsprinkler Irrigation Systems [PDF]

HortScience, 1997
`Tainung 2' papaya seedlings were transplanted on 30 Jan. 1996 and irrigated with one, two, or three drip irrigation lines per row in one study and with 90°, 180°, or 360° microsprinkler spray patterns in a second study to determine the reproductive and vegetative growth responses to irrigation design.

Stylosanthes cv. Campo Grande response to Bradyrhizobium inoculation in an Amazon Cerrado Oxisol

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Species of the genus Stylosanthes show great potential for use in mixed pastures and as green manure due to their symbiotic potential in symbiosis with diazotrophic bacteria, particularly Bradyrhizobium. These herbaceous legumes can improve pasture quality and contribute to sustainability.

The mulch dilemma: Trade‐offs between soil water conservation and microirrigation water retention

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Mulching is widely used worldwide to reduce soil water evaporation, but it can also intercept and retain rain or irrigation water, limiting infiltration into the soil and thereby altering the soil water balance. Microsprinkler irrigation in dwarf coconut orchards applies water in small, frequent doses, producing shallow, near‐surface wetting ...
