Application of electro-kinesis for saline-sodic irrigation management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The increasing demand for food production, and scarcity of good quality water with which to address this, has led to the use of marginal quality water, such as saline-sodic groundwater, for irrigation purposes, particularly in the arid and semi-arid ...

Morpho-physiology, yield, and water-use efficiency ofOpuntia ficus-indica irrigated with saline water

open access: yesActa Scientiarum. Agronomy, 2019
Forage cactus pear is considered a xerophilic plant, so it is adapted to harsh semiarid conditions and is a forage resource of significant importance for animal production in regions that are subject to food shortage and long dry periods.
