“…According to study published by Maruyama et al [19] and Rolbiecki et al [21,22,27] the irrigation of the watermelon plants is especially important when the cultivation is carried out on a very light and sandy soil. Drip irrigation on a very light soil also has a positive effect on marketable yields of other vegetable species, such as zucchini, lettuce, radish and asparagus [28][29][30]. The yield of watermelon fruits measured in the present experiment during the years 2012-2015 was similar to those in other studies.…”

The effect of nitrogen fertigation of two watermelon cultivars grown on the very light soil in the central part of Poland, during 2012–2014, was evaluated. The field experimental design was a split-plot with four replications. The main plot was the drip fertigation with nitrogen applied in two combinations: drip irrigation + broadcasted nitrogen fertilization (DI) used as a control, and drip irrigation + fertigation with nitrogen (DF); where, two cultivars: Bingo and Sugar Baby were used as a split-plot. The phosphorus and potassium fertilizers were applied pre plant in the spring, whereas, three rates of 40 kg ha−1 of nitrogen fertilizer were applied during the growing season. The fertigation was performed using a proportional mixing dispenser. The ripened fruits were harvested progressively as they mature. The marketable fruit yield, the single fruit weight and the number of fruits per plant, were evaluated. Tested factors presented a significant effect in the yield characteristics, further the interaction among the factors was important. DF, comparing to DI, notably improved fruit traits. Bingo cultivar had higher yield than Sugar Baby, but Sugar Baby cultivar produced more fruits than the Bingo under the DF treatment. This study provides the evidence that on a very light soil with low water and nutrients retention capacity the performance of watermelon can be optimized when nitrogen is applied directly through drip irrigation.

“…Under the climatic conditions of Poland irrigation is the method of supplementing water defi cits. Due to decreasing resources of disposable water for irrigation, more and more attention is paid to water-saving irrigation systems, the so-called microirrigation, including drip irrigation which is characterized with the high infl uence of the agricultural productivity effects (Pierzgalski and Jeznach 1993, Jeznach 2007, Rolbiecki and Rolbiecki 2008. The preliminary results of the present research by Figas et al (2011) point to the fact that cup plant is a plant predestined for growing under supplemental irrigation.…”

Effect of irrigation on some growth parameters of cup plant and dehydrogenase activity in soil.A fi eld experiment carried out in two vegetation seasons in the years 2012 and 2013 on very light soil at Kruszyn Krajeński, in the vicinity of Bydgoszcz (Poland). Investigation of the infl uence of drip irrigation on some growth parameters of three-and four-year-old cup plant (Silphium perfoliatum L.) and on the activity of dehydrogenase participating at cycling in soil was examined. The cup plants were cultivated from the micropropagation seedlings. Experiments were performed as one factorial in four replications. The factor of the experiment was the following variants: O -without irrigation (control plots), Dwith drip irrigation. Drip irrigation was scheduled according to tensiometers indications. Irrigation signifi cantly increase the height of the plants, the length of internode, the thickness of the stalk, the fresh weight of the shoots, and the number of the leaves and fl owers. Irrigation also increased the transpiration leaf area and the dry matter content. In the soil sampled under cup plant in 2012 there was found a greater activity of dehydrogenases in soil derived from non-irrigated objects.

“…Nowadays, in Poland, the irrigation is considered as a profitable crop treatment commonly performed in the field cultivation of vegetable plants [7;8]. The results reported by [28][29][30][31][32] also confirmed positive effects of the irrigation techniques on the yield of many vegetable species cultivated in the region of Bydgoszcz (central Poland).…”

The aim of the study was to estimate the water needs of early cultivars of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis L.). The calculations, based on the expected changes of air temperature, covered the forecasted thirty-years period, considered from 2021 to 2050. The research include the region of Bydgoszcz located in the central Poland. The forecasted mean monthly values of temperature in the region of central Poland, in the years 2021-2050, according to the climate change scenario for Poland (SRES: A1B), were used in the estimations. The water requirements of cauliflower early cultivars grown on three types of soil that diversified in terms of the water capacity (light soil, medium soil, heavy soil), were considered using two methods: Klatta's method and Press's method. The cauliflower water needs in the growing period, assumed from April to July, were calculated for each year during the considered thirty-years (2021-2050). As the reference period, the thirtyyears interval from 1981 to 2010 was applied. According to the expected changes of climate conditions, the results of study indicate that during the forecasted period (2021-2050), in the central Poland, the water requirements of cauliflower early cultivars will increase by about 6 %. Comparing to the reference period, considered from 1981 to 2010, the water needs of cauliflower early cultivars grown on the medium soil will increase in the forecasted years in the range from 304 to 321 mm. On the light (sandy) soil, the water requirements of cauliflower early cultivars, calculated by the Klatta's and Press's methods, in the forecasted period will increase from 349 to 369 mm and from 364 to 385 mm, respectively. While on the heavy (concise) soil, the water needs of cauliflower early cultivars in the forecasted years will increase from 258 to 273 mm and from 243 to 257 mm, according to the Klatta's and Press's method, respectively. During the growing period, the highest water requirements of cauliflower early cultivars were estimated in June: 85-90 mm on heavy soil, 107 mm on medium soil and 123-129 mm on light soil. In the years 2021-2050, in July, should be expected the highest increase of cauliflower early cultivars water requirements (by about 14 %).
