Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 40% soil moisture depletion increased wheat grain yield by 6.03% and 5.5% across two seasons versus 60% depletion.
- Observation I1N75D2 gave the highest grain yield, 3107.43 and 2955.50 kg fed-1, in the first and second seasons.
- Observation I2N50D1 had the lowest grain yield, 2265.05 and 2174.05 kg fed-1, in the two seasons.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 40% depletion used 1810 and 1920 m3 fed-1 in five irrigations, more than the 60% depletion regime.
- Intervention effect Consumptive water use was highest at 40% depletion, 38.53 and 39.6 cm, and lowest at 60% depletion, 32.48 and 32.58 cm.
- Intervention effect The 75 kg N fed-1 rate increased grain yield relative to N0 and N50 in both seasons.
- Intervention effect The 75 kg N fed-1 rate increased straw yield relative to N0 and N50 in both seasons.
- Association Nitrogen use efficiency increased as applied water increased.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen rate decreased nitrogen use efficiency, with N50 highest and N75 lowest.
- Observation I2N75D2 produced the highest water productivity, 2.20 and 2.4 kg m-3, in the two seasons.
- Recommendation The authors recommend irrigating wheat at 60% depletion in north Nile Delta soils to save about 320 m3 of water.
