Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Increasing deficit reduced fresh yield, dry yield and height over cuts and seasons.
- Intervention effect At 90% irrigation, yield was almost the same as full irrigation.
- Intervention effect At 90% irrigation, water saving was 10%.
- Intervention effect At 90% irrigation, water productivity and irrigation water productivity were highest.
- Observation Sorghum dry weight ranked 381.6, 367.8 and 319.6 kg.plot-1.
- Intervention effect Cowpea height was only slightly affected by irrigation treatments.
- Intervention effect Cowpea fresh and dry yields were significantly affected by irrigation level.
- Observation Cowpea fresh yield was 1502.5, 1447.0 and 1321.5 kg.plot-1 for control, 90% and 80% irrigation.
- Observation Cowpea dry yield was 253.5, 241.0 and 215.4 kg.plot-1 for control, 90% and 80% irrigation.
- Intervention effect Cowpea fresh yield fell 3.7% under 90% irrigation.
- Intervention effect Cowpea fresh yield fell 12% under 80% irrigation.
- Intervention effect Cowpea dry yield fell 4.9% under 90% irrigation.
- Intervention effect Cowpea dry yield fell 15.0% under 80% irrigation.
- Recommendation The authors conclude a 10% irrigation deficit can retain sorghum and cowpea forage yield in the Middle North Nile Delta.
