Determination Of Crop Water Stress Index For Irrigation Scheduling Of Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.), Yeşi̇m Erdem, Sezen Şehi̇rali̇, Tolga Erdem, Di̇nçer Kenar Jan 2006

Determination Of Crop Water Stress Index For Irrigation Scheduling Of Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.), Yeşi̇m Erdem, Sezen Şehi̇rali̇, Tolga Erdem, Di̇nçer Kenar

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

This study was conducted to determine the relationship between the canopy-air temperature differential and the vapor pressure deficit (VPD), which can be used to quantify the crop water stress index (CWSI) under fully irrigated (100%) and maximum water stress (0%) conditions of trickle irrigated bean. The effects of 5 irrigation levels (100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, and 0% replenishment of soil water depleted when 50% of available soil moisture was consumed in the 0.60 m soil profile depth of fully irrigated treatment) on seed yields and resulting CWSIs calculated using the empirical approach were also investigated. The highest yield and water …


Comparison Of Different Irrigation Methods Based On The Parametric Evaluation Approach, Orhan Dengi̇z Jan 2006

Comparison Of Different Irrigation Methods Based On The Parametric Evaluation Approach, Orhan Dengi̇z

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

The main objective of this research is to compare two different irrigation methods according to parametric evaluation system in the Field Plants Central Research Institute-Ikizce Research Farm's soils located in southern Ankara. Soil properties of the study area including texture, depth, EC, drainage, carbonate content and slope were derived from a detailed soil map scaled 1/5000. After analyzing and evaluating soil properties using geographic information system techniques, gravity and drop irrigation suitability maps were generated. Results showed that 13.1% of the study area was highly suitable for surface and gravity irrigation methods, whereas 51.2% of the study area was highly …
