This study was carried out on a 17 years Vineyard (Helwani,
Betamooni. Cvs) when the study started. Two deficit irrigation
treatments were studied (%88, 60%), in addition to the control (full irrigation), and each treatment included three replicati
ons. Drip irrigation technique was applied (one irrigation line for each tree line, and eight drippers for each tree). Fruit yield and sugar
percentage were observed under different water treatments.
The present investigation was carried out at the Agricultural Scientific
Research Center in Swieda to study the effect of deficit irrigation on the growth
of four apple seedlings rootstocks genotypes and to estimate their ability to
drought tolera
nce particularly in light of the lack of water sources and no rain.
Two irrigation levels: 100% (control) and 75% of water requirements were
applied. The shoot length, leaves number, leaves area, the distribution of the
roots in soil, the depth of irrigation water in the soil and the consumption of
water in each level were measured. Results showed that irrigation with 75% of
field capacity on studied genotypes caused reduction of shoots length, decline of
leaves number and area and the depth of root comparing with the control.
There were significant differences between studied genotypes in terms of vigor
where the genotypes C and S2 were superior than A and B.
Predicting crop yield response to irrigation level is increasingly important to
optimize irrigation under limited available water and for enhancing
sustainability and profitable production. This study was carried out to evaluate
the performance of
CropWat model in predicting deficit irrigation effect on
cotton crop, and to explore some alternatives for cotton irrigation. Crop yield
and water use data were collected from a 3-yr (2007-2009) field experiment to
assess the response of drip-irrigated cotton to deficit irrigation (DI).
The study aimed to estimate water requirements for Anise, the crop
coefficient, and the effect of three water stress treatments out of full irrigation
amount respectively) on its yield
The experiment was carried out during spring season 2016 to study the effect
of foliar spraying treatment with Tecamin Flower 2.5 ml/L in comparison with
distilled water, on growth of three hybrids of tomatoes at two different levels of
irrigation
(100 and 50 % of field capacity). Three sprays were conducted started
from flowering with two weeks’ interval. The results showed that ‘Finenss’ hybrid
had significant differences in plant height, branches per plant and leaves number per
plant. ‘Hadeer’ hybrid had superiority in dry matter ratio and content of chlorophyll
in leaves. Reducing the level of irrigation resulted in a significant decrease in
plant height, total branches number, versus an increase in the leaves number per
plant, total leaves area and the percentage of dry matter. The results showed that
the treatment with Tecamin flower led to a significant increase in all indicators
studied. The interaction treatments shoed that Hadeer hybrid irrigated in level 50
% and spraying of nutrient solution (Tecamin flower) had a significant increase in
dry matter ratio and chlorophyll content in leaves. While the hybrid Finenss which
irrigated in level 100 % with nutrient solution (Tecamin flower) had a significant
increase in leaves number per plant and total leaves area.
