“…The results are in conformity with the findings of Agrawal and Agrawal (2007) who found maximum B:C ratio in 60% of water applied through drip (1:2.85) and lowest under control (1:1.95) in pomegranate. Similarly, Singh et al (2007) also found maximum benefit-cost ratio (6.73) in guava under drip and least in the treatment ring basin (2.16). However, under fertigation level water soluble fertilizers that are given through drip are more expensive but the results are encouraging.…”

“…The results are in conformity with the findings of Biswas et al (1999) who obtained higher yields from dripirrigated plots at an IW: CPE ratio of 0.8 compared with those irrigated using a conventional system in papaya. Patil and Patil (1999) observed that guava fruit yield was highest when irrigated at an IW: CPE ratio of 0.8 and Singh et al (2007) revealed that 164% greater yield in case of drip (VD) as compared to that of ring basin irrigation (VRB) in guava. The treatment drip (VD) showed the highest yield and lowest yield was observed in ring basin (VRB) irrigation method.…”

A study was conducted during 2009 to 2010 and 2010 to 2011 to find out the effect of irrigation and fertigation scheduling on growth and yield of guava (Psidium guajava L.). The experiments were laid out in factorial randomized block design with sixteen treatment combinations which included four irrigation levels (basin, 50, 75 and 100% irrigation of irrigation water/cumulative pan evaporation) along with four fertigation levels, including, basal dose, 50, 75 and 100% water soluble fertilizers and replicated thrice. The nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (NPK) fertilizers were applied through fertigation as well as soil application to test various attributes of 3-years-old guava cv. Shweta under meadow (ultra high density) orcharding. The investigation indicated that 100% irrigation of irrigation water/cumulative pan evaporation (I 3) through drip resulted in maximum plant height (1.97 m), canopy volume (0.98 m 3), girth of primary branches (2.41 cm), leaf area (62.94 cm 2) and fruit weight (163.71 g). However, I 2 (75% irrigation of irrigation water/cumulative pan evaporation) resulted in maximum plant spread east westnorth south (1.91 to 1.79 m), fruit yield/plant (5.87 kg) with benefit:cost ratio of 2.62. Use of 60, 30 and 30 g NPK/plant/year produced maximum leaf area (63.39 cm 2), fruit weight (162.43 g) and fruit yield/plant (6.01 kg). Interaction effect of irrigation and fertigation levels showed that 100% irrigation of irrigation water/cumulative pan evaporation + 100% water soluble fertilizers gave maximum plant height (2.07 m), canopy volume (1.24 m 3), girth of primary branches (2.48 cm), leaf area (66.08 cm 2), fruit diameter 6.69 cm (polar) and 5.97 cm (equatorial), fruit weight (182.17 g), yield/plant (6.59 kg). However, maximum benefit:cost ratio of (2.91) was obtained as 75% irrigation of irrigation water/cumulative pan evaporation + 75% water soluble fertilizers.

“…Srivastava et al (2010) observed that irrigation efficiency can be increased up to 95% by replacing the irrigation method from conventional (border or furrow) to pressurized irrigation. Micro-irrigation has wide adaptability in semi-arid and arid regions where water supply remains limited (Cetin et al, 2004;Singh et al, 2001Singh et al, , 2007. However, a regular water supply is a prerequisite to get maximum benefit from a micro-irrigation system.…”

Inadequate water supply in a canal command area is a major limiting factor for sustainable crop production, as well as for adoption of crop diversification options. Shifting from conventional (surface) irrigation to micro-irrigation in conjunction with an auxiliary reservoir is a possible alternative for managing irrigation water shortages. The auxiliary reservoir provides a reliable water supply for the micro-irrigation system during the period when the canal system is not operational. To study the techno-economic feasibility of a proposed technological package, an auxiliary reservoir of 1500 m 3 capacity was constructed at the Research Farm of Central Institute of Post Harvest Engineering and Technology, Abohar, India, which received a canal supply from an outlet of the Panjawa minor of the Abohar distributory of the Sirhind canal system. Drip irrigation was used to irrigate kinnow (Citrus reticulata Blanco.), guava (Psidium guajava L.), pomegranate (Punica granatum L.), tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) and capsicum (Capsicum annuum L.). Drip and micro-sprinkler both were used for potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and onion (Allium cepa L.). These crops were also grown with surface irrigation methods (border or furrow depending upon the crop) as control. Results of the study indicated that the interventions were able to save a substantial amount of irrigation water (3-46%) compared to surface methods, along with higher yields, a doubling of water productivity and more profits per mm of irrigation water. The study clearly showed that micro-irrigation in conjunction with an auxiliary reservoir should be recommended in canal-irrigated commands in order to improve water productivity and farmers' income in arid regions of Punjab. RÉSUMÉ L'insuffisance de l'approvisionnement en eau d'un canal est un facteur limitant majeur pour la durabilité de la production agricole, ainsi que pour l'adoption des options de diversification des cultures. Le passage de l'irrigation conventionnelle à la micro-irrigation associée à un réservoir auxiliaire est une alternative possible pour gérer les pénuries d'eau d'irrigation. Le réservoir auxiliaire fournit un approvisionnement fiable en eau pour le système de micro-irrigation pendant la période où le système du canal n'est pas opérationnel. Pour étudier la faisabilité technico-économique du paquet technologique, un réservoir auxiliaire d'une capacité de 1500 m 3 a été construit à la ferme de recherche de l'Institut central de l'ingénierie et de la technologie post-récolte, à Abohar, en Inde, qui reçoit l'eau de la prise de Panjawa mineure, sur le système de canaux de Sirhind. L'irrigation goutte à goutte a été utilisée pour irriguer du Kinnow (Citrus reticulata Blanco.), du goyavier (Psidium guajava L.), du grenadier (Punica granatum L.), de la tomate (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) et du poivron (Capsicum annuum L.). Le goutte à goutte et la micro aspersion ont été utilisés à la fois pour la pomme de terre (Solanum tuberosum L.) et l'oignon (Allium cepa L.). Ces cultures ont égal...

“…Reddy et al, (2015) reported that in tomato highest water use efficiency (1.44) was observed in drip + polythene mulch + trellising followed by drip + polythene mulch (1.26). Singh et al, (2007) reported that guava yields 164% more yield under drip irrigation when compared with ring basin irrigation and drip with plastic mulching treatment (VDM). Joshi et al, (2012) concluded that treatments in combination with Mulch + drip irrigation at 100% WR + 125% RDF at each level of fertilizer doses were more effective in improving plant parameters in the first year but in the subsequent years Mulch + drip irrigation at 100% WR +75% RDF gave the highest fruit yield.…”
