Effects of magnetized water application on soil and maize growth indices under different amounts of salt in the water
Application of low quality water for irrigation is compulsive in facing water scarcity. Use of a magnetic field is an approach to overcome this challenge. This study examined the impact of magnetic field technology on improving germination under water of different salinity levels. An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of saline water levels, i.e. (S1):0.5, (S2):2, (S3):4 and ...

The effect of rigid scheduling on productivity and water-use of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) grown under small-scale irrigation
This paper evaluates the results of a study highlighting the effect of rigid scheduling on crop water use and soil water extraction patterns, crop coefficients, crop response functions and water-use efficiency (WUE). The cumulative Penman potential evapotranspiration (Etp) at the end of the season reached around 400 mm and the total depth of water applied between planting and harvest through ...

Corn Irrigation System
From Seed to Harvest: The Role of Corn Irrigation System Today we’re going to dive deep into the world of agriculture, focusing specifically on corn irrigation system. From the moment a corn seed is planted to the time it’s ready for harvest, irrigation plays a vital role. This process ensures that the crops get the right amount of water at the right time, which can significantly ...

Cultivation of rice for animal feed with circulated irrigation of treated municipal wastewater for enhanced nitrogen removal: comparison of cultivation systems feeding irrigation water upward and downward
To achieve enhanced nitrogen removal, we modified a cultivation system with circulated irrigation of treated municipal wastewater by using rice for animal feed instead of human consumption. The performance of this modified system was evaluated through a bench-scale experiment by comparing the direction of circulated irrigation (i.e. passing through paddy soil upward and downward). The modified ...

Drip Irrigation for Corn
Corn Farming Made Easy with Drip Irrigation for Corn: Water Management Ultimate Solution Corn farming, with its golden ears swaying in the breeze, has long been a symbol of abundance and sustenance. However, the road to a thriving corn harvest is not without its challenges. Traditional irrigation methods, such as flood irrigation, can waste a significant amount of water and lead to environmental ...

Yield and water use response of cuphea to irrigation in the Northern Corn belt
Cuphea (Cuphea viscosissima Jacq. x C. lanceolata W.T. Aiton) may be prone to drought stress, yet little is known about the yield response of this new oilseed crop to irrigation. A field study was conducted in western Minnesota on a Barnes loam soil (fine-loamy, mixed, superactive, frigid Calcic Hapludolls) in 2002 and 2003 to compare yield and water use of irrigated and nonirrigated cuphea. ...

Remote monitoring helps growers, water districts do their jobs
Propeller flow meters have long been an important tool for agricultural irrigation management. As water scarcity and resource management have become increasingly critical, getting the most timely, accurate readings available from those meters is becoming more important than ever. Here is how growers and water conservation districts (WCDs) are each getting the best of both worlds for their own ...
