Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Water deficit decreased agronomic performance, productivity and water use efficiency of sunflower.
- Intervention effect Water deficit decreased grain oil and protein concentration of sunflower.
- Intervention effect Manure farmyard and zeolite increased chlorophyll content, biological yield and grain yield of sunflower in most treatments.
- Intervention effect Manure farmyard and zeolite increased oil and protein concentration within sunflower grain in most treatments.
- Intervention effect The highest grain oil concentrations were obtained with integrated treatment and 10 ton ha−1 zeolite, regardless of irrigation regime.
- Mechanism The improvement in water use efficiency is interpreted to result from higher grain yield under organic nutrition and zeolite.
