Influence of Microsprinkler Irrigation Amount on Water, Soil, and pH Profiles in a Coastal Saline Soil [PDF]

, 2020
Microsprinkler irrigation is a potential method to alleviate soil salinization. After conducting a homogeneous, highly saline, clayey, and coastal soil from the Bohai Gulf in northern China in a column experiment, the results show that the depth of the ...

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 ...

Inoculation and Co‐Inoculation With Plant Growth–Promoting Bacteria in Chickpea: Physiological Aspects and Plant Growth

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The inoculation of plants with growth‐promoting and nitrogen‐fixing bacteria is considered an effective alternative to reduce the use of nitrogen fertilizers and promote plant growth. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of inoculation and co‐inoculation with growth‐promoting bacteria on the physiological traits and growth of chickpea plants.

Design, Simulation, and Economic Analysis of a Solar Photovoltaic‐Powered Pumping System for Drip Irrigation of a 1‐ha Bean Farm in a Tropical Climate

Journal of Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
A successful agricultural system, be it large‐scale or small‐scale, requires adequate irrigation of plants, regardless of seasonal changes in rainfall. Unreliable electricity supply in tropical regions has necessitated the use of alternate power sources for efficient irrigation.
