Effect of Inter Spaces and Emitter Types on the Hydraulic Performance of Drip Irrigation System
Ali Widaa Mohammed Elamin , Hassan Awadalla Abdala Ahmed
This study was conducted at the Demonstration Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Khartoum – Shambat, during May 2011 to February 2012, to investigate the effect of inter-space and emitter type on hydraulic performance of drip irrigation system. The farm lies at E and N and 380 m above mean Sea level. Two types of emitters were used, online pressure compensation (Eo) and inline labyr
Performance Evaluation of Small Scale Irrigation Schemes By Using Process and Comparative Indicators: Case Study on Golina and Kokono Small Scale Irrigation Schemes, North Wollo Zone, Amhara Region, Ethiopia
Ketema Feye Ayane
The study was conducted to evaluate the performance of two small scale irrigation schemes at north Wollo zone, Amhara regional state using process and comparative performance indicators. The irrigation schemes were Golina and Kokono with command area of 400ha and 80ha respectively. Primary data collection includes measuring discharge at diversion weir, soil moisture before and after irrigation and
Improving Adaptive Water and Nutrient Management in Food Value Chains for Climate Change Adaptation: A Case of Sensor Technology in Malawi
Isaac R. Fandika, Richard Stirzaker, Geoffrey Mwepa, Grivin Chipula, Jonathan Chikankheni, Herbert Kumwenda, Horace Kakhiwa
Soil water and nutrient management for climate-smart agriculture by smallholder farmers have typically been by trial and error. Studies were conducted to adapt the use of sensor farmer–friendly monitoring technology in measuring soil water and nutrients with the aim of improving the efficiency of resources in the food value chain. Simple monitoring tools (chameleon and Wetting Front Detector) whic
Assessing the effect of water management regimes on the growth of Tomatoes in Abeokuta, South West Nigeria
Makinde Akeem Adekunle a,1, Eruola Abayomi Olayiwola a, Rosanna Akinola
The erratic nature of rainfall pattern in parts of the world, had compelled need for consistent works on understanding crops response to different environments to enable identification of the varieties of crops with resistance to drought to ensure food sustainability in drought prone regions. The experiment was conducted in a screen house at Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) beh
