Management strategies for water use efficiency and micro irrigated crops: principles, practices, and performance (1st)

This volume presents new research and technologies for making better use of water resources for agricultural purposes.

The chapters focus on better management to improve allocation and irrigation water efficiency and look at performance factors as well.

Chapters look at irrigation technology, environmental conditions, and scheduling of water application.

One section of the book focuses on water management in the cultivation of sugarcane, a very important industrial crop used in many fields.

Other sections are devoted to principles and challenging technologies, water use efficiency for drip-irrigated crops, performance of fertigated rice under micro irrigation, and evaluation of performance of drip-irrigated crops.
