Other claims from this paper (11)
- Association Trunk cross-sectional area and crown volume of Valencia orange trees increased linearly with the amount of water applied.
- Intervention effect Flower number and fruit setting of Valencia orange were not affected by the irrigation regimens.
- Intervention effect Yield of Valencia orange at 100% ETc (T3) was 31% higher than at T1.
- Intervention effect Exportable yield of T3 Valencia orange trees was almost double that of T1 trees.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 50% ETc (T2) produced smaller Valencia orange trees.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 50% ETc (T2) reduced exportable yield only moderately, by 14%.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 150% ETc (T4) used more water than 100% ETc (T3).
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 150% ETc (T4) produced larger Valencia orange trees than 100% ETc (T3).
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 150% ETc (T4) gave no improvement in yield over 100% ETc (T3).
- Intervention effect Complete restriction of irrigation during early fruit enlargement (T5) gave a smaller water saving than the T2 regime.
- Intervention effect Complete restriction of irrigation during early fruit enlargement (T5) reduced exportable yield by 22%.
