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 …
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 …

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 …
Accurate measurement of soil wetting pattern from the point source of drip irrigation system plays an important role for designing of the irrigation system. The study evaluated a novel …
Precision irrigation involves the accurate and precise application of water to meet the specific requirements of individual plants or management units and minimize adverse …
The design and management of irrigation systems require knowledge of soil water movement. There are few studies on soil water dynamics of Moistube irrigation (MTI) since it …
Increased water demands and climate change have reduced agricultural water resources in areas that experience water shortages. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted in an …
Alfalfa is one of the major perennial forage crops in California, vital for the livestock industry, and provides environmental benefits to the ecosystem in the state. Information on …
