Evaluation and improvement of CERES-Maize evapotranspiration simulations under full and limited irrigation treatments in northern Colorado
… agriculturally productive while practicing "limited or deficit irrigation," where substantial yields may be obtained with reduced water applications during the non-water sensitive growth stages. Savings in crop evapotranspiration (ET) could then be leased to municipalities or other entities …

Evaluating irrigation system performance: A case study in East Java, Indonesia
… and donor groups alike claim that most public irrigation systems in Asia operate well below their potential; yet there is a very little quantitative information on the extent to which these systems are achieving performance objectives. This study develops a methodology to evaluate both …

Cropping systems under water-limited conditions: effects of rotation and nitrogen management on yield, resource use efficiency, profitability, and soil properties
Sustaining agricultural productivity in water-limited regions such as the Central Great Plains requires cropping systems that balance yield, resource-use efficiency, and economic viability. This thesis integrates results from field studies conducted at different temporal scales, location and under …

An improved multicriterion analysis approach to avoid subjectivity in irrigation water allocation decisions
The performance of the century-old irrigation system of Pakistan (i.e. warabandi) has been evaluated using socio-economic data gathered by the author in multiple farmers surveys (n=278) conducted in Indus Basin of Pakistan. In the surveyed regions, the warabandi system was performing poorly. …

Yield and quality of cool-season perennial grasses for forage and biomass feedstocks in Northeast Colorado
… selected based on potential productivity under limited irrigation typical to Eastern Colorado. Two spring harvest dates were selected based on important production phases of the plant. The June 1, 2009 harvest (H1) corresponded to the boot to early heading stage. The average for the species …

Breeding Soybean [Glycine max (L) Merr.] Under Reduced Irrigation
… in the United States Mid-South relies heavily on irrigation with 85% of soybean surfaces are supplemented with water in Arkansas. The most common irrigation practice in the U.S. Mid-South is furrow irrigation. Furrow irrigation could add an extra dimension of variation because of water gradients …
