Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Peach yield fell significantly under RDI-50.
- Intervention effect Peach fruit size fell significantly under RDI-50.
- Intervention effect Peach sugar to acid ratio increased under deficit irrigation in the first year.
- Intervention effect Peach polyphenol content increased under deficit irrigation in the first year.
- Intervention effect Almond kernel quality similarly improved.
- Intervention effect Almond kernel epidermal grooves became deeper under RDI-50.
- Mechanism The deeper grooves may have affected almond commercial value.
- Intervention effect Peach yield was maintained with 75% ETC irrigation.
- Intervention effect Almond yield was maintained at 50% ETC irrigation.
- Intervention effect Plum yield was maintained at 50% ETC irrigation.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that peach irrigation can be reduced by up to 25% during fruit-growth slowdown without reducing yield.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that almond irrigation can be reduced by up to 50% during fruit-growth slowdown without reducing yield.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that plum irrigation can be reduced by up to 50% during fruit-growth slowdown without reducing yield.
