Other claims from this paper (19)
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 45% ASMD gave higher grain yield and yield components than other irrigation regimes.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 75% ASMD gave the lowest grain yield and yield components.
- Intervention effect Foliar organic acids significantly affected grain yield and most yield components.
- Intervention effect Ascorbic acid foliar spray gave higher yield and component values.
- Intervention effect Irrigation by foliar-acid interaction did not significantly influence yield and yield components.
- Intervention effect Irrigation treatments did not significantly affect grain N, P and K contents.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at 45% ASMD had higher grain N, P and K contents.
- Intervention effect Treatment interaction did not significantly alter grain N, P and K contents.
- Intervention effect The 45% ASMD and ascorbic acid combination gave higher grain N and P contents.
- Observation Seasonal ETc was 54.82 cm in 2010.
- Observation Seasonal ETc was 55.45 cm in 2011.
- Intervention effect The 45% ASMD regime gave highest ETc and 75% ASMD gave lowest ETc.
- Intervention effect Foliar organic acids slightly reduced ETc versus control.
- Intervention effect The 45% ASMD with no foliar acid gave the highest ETc, 55.38 cm in 2010 and 56.06 cm in 2011.
- Observation The 75% ASMD with ascorbic acid in 2010 and citric acid in 2011 gave lowest ETc of 35.55 and 37.17cm, respectively.
- Observation Crop coefficients were 0.22, 0.43, 1.14, 1.02 and 0.34 from May to September.
- Intervention effect At 75% ASMD, water use efficiency was highest at 1.57 and 1.37 kg grains m-3 water consumed across two seasons.
- Intervention effect At 45% ASMD, water use efficiency was lowest at 1.44 and 1.31 grains m-3 water consumed.
- Intervention effect Ascorbic acid gave highest water use efficiency, 1.90 and 1.67 kg grains m-3 water consumed, among the tested organic acids.
