Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Irrigation levels significantly influenced sunflower growth, yield and water productivity.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 60% MAD produced the highest water productivity at 0.85 kg m-3 compared with farmer’s practice.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 60% MAD produced the highest average benefit to cost ratio of 2.08.
- Recommendation The authors found 60% MAD irrigation best considering yield, water productivity and benefit to cost ratio.
- Recommendation The authors suggest 50% to 60% MAD irrigation for sunflower in water-scarce sandy loam soil to increase water productivity.
