Designing drip irrigation systems involve selection of an appropriate combination of emitter
discharge rate and spacing between emitters for any given set of soil, crop, and climatic …

Orchards with tree crops are of critical importance to the global economy and to the
environment due to their ability to be productive for many years without the need for …

Due to the decreasing availability of water resources and the increasing competition for
water between residential, industrial, and agricultural users, increasing irrigation efficiency …

The design and selection of ideal emitter discharge rates can be aided by accurate
information regarding the wetted soil pattern under surface drip irrigation. The current field …

Due to increasing competition for water resources by urban, industrial, and agricultural
users, the proportion of agricultural water use is gradually decreasing. To maintain or …

Suitable design and management of drip irrigation systems depends on an accurate
knowledge of the moisture distribution patterns around the emitters. An important parameter …

Determination of wetting patterns' dimensions is essential in designing and managing
surface/subsurface drip irrigation systems. The laboratory experiments were conducted …

Subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) systems are increasingly being used in agriculture in
attempts to use the available water more efficiently. The proper design and management of …

Drip irrigation is more effective and less expensive if a large amount of soil can be wetted
with each emitter without losing water or nutrients below the root zone. The distance that …

For trickle irrigation systems to deliver improved water-and nutrient-use efficiency, distance
between emitters and emitter flow rates must be matched to the soil's wetting characteristics …
