Distribution of moisture and salinity under deficit irrigation and irrigation water salinity in an alternative trickle irrigation system of tape
This study was performed to investigate the horizontal and vertical distribution of soil moisture and salinity using an alternative trickle irrigation system of drip tape. Four main treatments consisting of 100, 80, 70, and 60% of the plants’ water requirements and three sub-treatments of 2.1, 4.6, and 10.2 dS/m, were conducted. Following irrigation, the soil moisture and salinity ...

Preflowering abortion reduces spikelet number in upland Rice (Oryza Sativa L.) under water stress
Spikelet number per panicle is a major target trait for improving rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield in upland fields and is strongly affected by water stress. The rice panicle consists of rachis branches and spikelets, in which preflowering spikelet abortion often occurs. We investigated the effect of timing and intensity of water stress at the early reproductive stage on the morphology of rice ...

Features of impulse sprinkling technology
The principle of non-stop water supply to plants and soil in accordance with their water intake is progressive. Drip irrigation and impulse sprinkling correspond to this principle. Drip irrigation provides optimal water and nutrient regimes directly to the root system of plants. However, this irrigation is not effective enough under conditions of high temperature (over 25–35 °C) as growth ...

Bio-stimulants Effect on Pepper Plant Performance Case Study
Two bio-stimulants were tested, along with a normal nutrition control treatment, in order to determine the effect on sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum) plant growth, water use efficiency, drought tolerance and resilience. All plants, excluding control plants, were exposed to drought and recovery period, and their physiological response was ...

Water Stress
Plants experience water stress either when the water supply to their roots becomes limiting, or when the transpiration rate becomes intense. Water stress is primarily caused by a water deficit, such as a drought or high soil salinity. Each year, water stress on arable plants in different parts of the world disrupts agriculture and food supply with the final consequence: famine. Hence, the ability ...

Testing confirms more efficient fertiliser use lifts gross margins
This article discusses how accounting for the variation in crop yield potential due to season and soil type when formulating fertiliser rates can increase profit and reduce nutrient excesses. It shows that improved estimates of yield potential can increase gross margins by A$2–$20/ha over ‘farming-for-the-average’, with higher increases on soils with lower plant-available water capacity at drier ...

Method for Trimming Riccia fluitans and Glossostigma elatinoides
Riccia fluitans and Glossostigma elatinoides are the two most common varieties in the aquatic plant world, and they are the species that people prefer more when they choose to plant water grass.When breeding such kinds of aquatic plant species, in addition to scientific and reasonable care, but also regular trimming. Cut off the aging and rotten leaves, so that the new leaves can grow normally, ...

Estimating plant-available water using the simple inverse yield model for claypan landscapes
Plant-available water (PAW) is one of the fundamental soil factors affecting crop yield, yet quantitative determination of plant-available water capacity (PAWc) at a field scale has been challenging. A simple inverse yield model (SIYM) has been devised and shown to be successful in estimating PAWc at a field scale for well-drained soils by matching simulated corn (Zea mays L.) yield with measured ...

Barley root hair growth and morphology in soil, sand, and water solution media and relationship with nickel toxicity
Barley, Hordeum vulgare (Doyce), was grown in the three media of soil, hydroponic sand solution (sand), and hydroponic water solution (water) culture at the same environmental conditions for 4 d (days). Barley roots were scanned and root morphology was analyzed. Plants grown in the three media had different root morphology and Ni toxicity response. Root elongations and total root lengths ...

Water plant covers bring operational, safety benefits - case study
It was time to upgrade the water treatment plan, again. For the third time since commissioning the Kuiper Water Treatment Plant, the City of Aurora, CO, and its engineers, CH2M Hill, began planning another upgrade project. This 70 mgd direct filtration plant was originally built in the late 1960s and had already been expanded twice between 1972 and 1976. Now the plant was to be upgraded again to ...

Soil water reserve estimation and vegetation relationships in a Mediterranean sub-humid forested catchment
A simple water balance model was used to calculate soil water reserve in a Mediterranean forested catchment. The relationship between soil water reserve and leaf water potential and stem water content was analysed. The usefulness of these variables as plant water status indicators was tested. The analyses were developed with a seven-year-long database (2001–2007) in the case of soil water content ...

Irrigation Systems and Practices in Challenging Environments
The book Irrigation Systems and Practices in Challenging Environments is divided into two interesting sections, with the first section titled Agricultural Water Productivity in Stressed Environments, which consists of nine chapters technically crafted by experts in their own right in their fields of expertise. Topics range from effects of irrigation on the physiology of plants, deficit irrigation ...

An alternative method for measuring plant available water in inorganic amendments
Inorganic amendments (IA) added to the rootzone of turfgrass are used to increase plant available water (PAW), however conflicting amounts of PAW contents have been reported for some of these amendments. The concept of PAW and the common technique used to estimate PAW in IAs have been reviewed. We hypothesized that hydraulic nonequilibrium in pressure-plate measurements results in an ...

Case study - Garden shop uses rainwater for bedding plants to beat the hosepipe ban
With the all the rain water falling on the shop’s roof, plus the new yard roof, and being free of charge, Matthew decided to fit rainwater harvesting. He wanted to be able to water the bedding plants and flowers, which are such an important attraction for clients of the shop. The Site Yalden Garden Store in Chalfont St Giles, South Bucks, is a popular shopping destination for hardware, ...
