- Intervention effect Leaf water potential was the same among the irrigation treatments and control.
- Intervention effect Total fruit fresh mass was lower in deficit irrigation and partial rootzone drying than in the control.
- Intervention effect Total fruit dry mass was the same among the irrigation treatments and control.
- Intervention effect Irrigation use efficiency was higher in deficit irrigation and partial rootzone drying than in the control.
- Intervention effect Vegetative fresh mass was not affected by the irrigation treatments.

- Intervention effect Dry mass allocation into stems and leaves was higher in deficit irrigation and partial rootzone drying plants than in control plants.
- Intervention effect Dry mass allocation into fruit was lower in deficit irrigation and partial rootzone drying plants than in control plants.
- Association Total fruit fresh mass was affected by the quantity of irrigation water applied.
- Association Total fruit fresh mass was not affected by the volume of soil wetted.
- Recommendation Deficit irrigation and partial rootzone drying are feasible water-saving practices for processing tomato.
