“…The applied depth of 1,564.93 mm probably exceeded the amount of water required by the crop, causing soil swamping and interference with rhizome development. According to Costa et al (2017), the highest irrigation levels (125 and 150% of ETc) subject the plants to O 2 deficiency (hypoxia) in the edaphic environment due to the excess water accumulating in the soil. Dutra et al (2012) stated that soaked soil results in a lack of oxygen supplied to the roots, which causes the root tissues to die because conditions favor lactic fermentation and acidosis in the cells, and can also lead to a reduction in nutrient and water absorption due to lack of energy.…”

In order to achieve good yields and profitability from ginger crops, the water supply must be adequate. However, there are few studies available which have evaluated the adequate water supply to this vegetable. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different irrigation depths on the development and productivity of ginger plants. The research was conducted at the "Sítio Schmidt" farm located in the municipality of Santa Maria de Jetibá, in the central mountainous region of Espírito Santo State, Brazil. The experimental design was a randomized block design with four replications, each experimental unit consisting of three rows at a spacing of 0.90 m and 0.10 m between plants of two meters extension, totaling 20 experimental units. The treatments consisted of application of five irrigation depths equivalent to: 50%, 75%, 100%, 125% and 150% of crop evapotranspiration (ETc). We evaluated the number of sprouts; average mass of export quality rhizome; the production of export, small and total rhizomes (t ha-1); and water use efficiency. The total water depth applied in the range 1100–1200 mm per cycle favors the development of ginger plants, providing the highest yields of total and export rhizomes, the greatest average mass of export quality rhizome and lowest production of small rhizomes.
