Intervention effect Fog cooling used less water than pad-and-fan cooling.
Intervention effect Air relative humidity was slightly higher with fog cooling than pad-and-fan cooling.
Association Simulated greenhouse air relative humidity declined with increasing ventilation rate.
Association Water use for fog cooling increased with ventilation rate.
Method / resource The control algorithm could maintain humidity and temperature in a desirable range while reducing fog water use.
Association Tomato canopy transpiration increased linearly with vapor pressure deficit.
Intervention effect Lower ventilation decreased total greenhouse water use by 13%.
Intervention effect Lower ventilation increased greenhouse relative humidity.

Changes in chemical properties of 48 intensively grazed, rain-fed dairy paddocks on sandy soils over 11 years of liming in south-western Australia

M. D. A. Bolland; W. K. Russell Soil Research 2010. doi:10.1071/sr09199

Other claims from this paper (9)

Recommendation Tissue testing was needed with soil testing to confirm nutrient management decisions.
Method / resource Soil pH testing reliably identified paddocks needing lime and monitored liming.
Method / resource Soil phosphorus testing reliably indicated when phosphorus fertilizer was required.
Recommendation No phosphorus fertilizer was needed above the soil-specific critical soil-test phosphorus value.
Observation Plant tissue testing indicated adequate phosphorus for ryegrass production when no phosphorus was applied.
Method / resource Soil testing could not determine which paddocks required potassium fertilizer.
Method / resource Soil testing could not determine which paddocks required sulfur fertilizer.
Recommendation The authors recommended annual potassium and sulfur fertilizer and tissue testing to improve their management.
Recommendation The authors recommended annual soil pH and soil-test phosphorus reporting, with P-buffering index, organic carbon and conductivity every 3–5 years.
