“…Using spatial model, Wang and Zhang [11], showed that the yield of wheat, soya beans and corn are spatially dependent in different regions of the United States of America if the distance among regions is not more than 570 miles. Agnihotri et al [12], examined the effect of the volume of irrigation water and its salinity on the yield and income of wheat in India using saltwater production function with quadratic function form. The results showed that 97% of yield variation was resulted by changes in quantity (size) and quality (salinity) of the irrigation water.…”

Wheat is one of the important commodities in world households' consumption model and often used as a political tool in international relationships resulting in imposition of political pressure. In importing nations, in light of these pressures increasing these yields is necessary. This paper attempts to identify various bio-factors influencing yield of Wheat in four provinces of Iran: West Azarbayjan, Hamedan, Zanjan and Kurdistan. This study used a spatial regression model to determine the effect of various factors on wheat yield. Results showed that Durbin spatial regression model has a higher power of explaining variability in wheat yield than any other models. Results suggested that crop soil depth, moisture in field and phosphorous level had positive effect and soil erosion and soil potassium and nitrogen has a negative effect on yield of wheat in these regions. This study concluded that future regional studies estimating production function of wheat should use the spatial models.

“…Agnihotri et al (1992) and Yaron and Bresler (1970) proposed optimisation models for economic considerations of the production of wheat and citrus respectively, under saline conditions. Their studies showed that the use of saline drainage effluents for supplementary irrigation could result in substantial savings of good-quality water and could help to avoid downstream environmental pollution problems.…”

The use of saline drainage water for irrigation is a management practice that results in fresh water savings and also addresses the problem of drainage water disposal. However, environmental and economic restrictions need to be considered in order to design a sustainable system. An optimisation routine is proposed here that aims to estimate the quantities of drainage water that could be used for irrigation. The proposed routine incorporates crop–water production functions to simulate a crop's performance under a saline environment. The area of implementation was the regional irrigation network of Agoulinitsa in western Greece, a coastal region with a shallow aquifer. Scenarios under different prices of fresh water and salinity values of drainage water were examined.
