Irrigation and Water Use Efficiency
1976In the preceding decades knowledge regarding water supply, water uptake, transpiration, and plant growth has increased enormously. Various handbooks have been written on this subject from either a physical, ecophysiological, agronomic, or engineering point of view (Slatyer, 1967; Kozlowski, 1972; Kovda et al., 1973; Monteith, 1973). Moreover, field and

Physiological and agronomic approaches for improving water-use efficiency in crop plants
Agricultural Water Management, 2019Water is the lifeline for crop production worldwide. However, the changing climate is causing erratic rains and frequent episodes of drought, and a continuous decline in freshwater resources.

Agricultural Water Management, 2019
The additions of biochar and inorganic fertiliser to agricultural soils have been reported to enhance soil fertility and crop production under rainfed and irrigation conditions. However, it is unclear how biochar improve the growth, yield, irrigation and

Transpiration: Water Use Efficiency
2007The balance between carbon assimilation (net photosynthetic production) and the throughput of water by transpiration (resource use in terms of water) results in a benefit–cost ratio of interest to eco-physiologists and crop physiologists, known as water use efficiency.

The loss of water vapour from aerial tissues of terrestrial plants as they assimilate CO 2 from the atmosphere for photosynthesis is biophysically unavoidable. Photosynthesis and transpiration co-vary with the aperture and density of stomatal pores, and are co-determined by the leaf area, which is involved in light capture and water loss.

Journal AWWA, 1996
A disturbing trend threatens to return the role of water conservation to that of bygone days, when it was regarded merely as a means to cope with temporary water shortages such as droughts. Water utilities across the United States, and particularly in California, are facing pressures to sell more water to increase revenues.

Increasing Water Use and Water Use Efficiency in Dryland Wheat
Agronomy Journal, 2001Water use efficiency (WUE), the ratio of grain yield to crop water use, provides a simple means of assessing whether yield is limited by water supply or other factors. Based on this assessment, yields of commercial dryland wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crops in southeastern Australia are usually not limited by water.
