Response of tall fescue to saline water as influenced by leaching fractions and irrigation uniformity distributions
… fractions (LF = drainage volume divided by irrigation volume) and irrigation uniformity distributions have on the response of tall fescue to irrigation with saline water. Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb. 'Monarch') was grown in 18 plots, each with a centrally located lysimeter that …

Responses of two grass species to plant growth regulators, fertilizer N, chelated Fe, salinity and water stress
… were N levels, soil moisture regimes, and saline irrigations. The two materials investigated for PGR properties were a commercial product called Roots (a cold-water extract of seaweed and peat humus fortified with "intermediate metabolites" and thiamine) and the systemic fungicide …

Irrigation of acacia and eucalyptus species with waters of different salinities in a semi-arid environment in Formentera, Balearic Islands
… Islands) using small quantities of highly saline irrigation water. Soil improvement and avoidance of detrimental long term effects was a prime objective. Two species, Eucalyptus gomphocephala D.C. and Acacia saligna (Labill.)H.Wendl. were tested with four irrigation treatments. Irrigation …

Modeling salt movement and halophytic crop growth on marginal lands with the APEX model
Saline soils negatively impact crop productivity in nearly 20% of irrigated agricultural lands worldwide. Cultivation of highly salt-tolerant plants, or halophytes, may increase productivity compared to conventional salt-sensitive crops (i.e., glycophytes), thereby increasing the economic potential …

Sewage, salt, and sediments: water-quality assessment of the lower Vaal-Orange River system
… from dysfunctional wastewater-treatment works, saline irrigation return flows and upstream discharges from the industrialised upper Vaal River region. For this thesis, water-quality impacts on users in the lower Vaal-Orange River system were examined. It was found that sewage, salt, sediments, …

Evaluation of Modern Irrigation Techniques with Brackish Water
Modern irrigation techniques are becoming increasingly important in water-scarce countries especially in arid and semiarid regions. Higher crop production and better water use efficiency are usually achieved by drip irrigation as compared to other irrigation methods. Furthermore, by using drip …

Estrategias con riego automático para controlar la salinidad en plantas ornamentales en maceta
… to the growing use of low quality water for irrigation purposes, the production of ornamental plants being no exception. It is common for subterranean waters and water from treatment plants to contain high salt levels, particularly in semiarid areas, so that the identification of …
