Frizzone

et al. 2019

Irrigation management is essential for tomato fruits yield and quality. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the yield of tomatoes for industrial processing, 'BRS Sena' hybrid, subjected to water depths and irrigation suspension periods before harvest, irrigated by subsurface drip irrigation, in Goiás, Brazil (17º 49' 19.5" S and 49º 12' 11.3" W), in 2015 and 2016. The experiments were conducted under a randomized complete block design, with four replications, in split plots. Five irrigation levels (50, 75, 100, 125 and 150% of crop evapotranspiration) were evaluated in the plots and five irrigation suspension periods (0, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days before harvest) were evaluated in the subplots. At 125 days after transplanting the seedlings, the yields of green, mature, rotten fruits and total yield, water productivity and percentages of green, mature and rotten fruits were evaluated. The highest total fruit yields (105.86 and 58.60 t ha -1 ) were obtained with water replacements ranging from 125.47 (615.09 mm) to 132.11 (564.00 mm) of crop evapotranspiration, in the first and second year of experiment, respectively. Growing plants under water deficit and excess increased the incidence of rotten fruits and decreased that of mature fruits. Pre-harvest irrigation suspension reduced crop yield and incidence of green fruits and increased the incidence of rotten fruits. The highest water productivity by the crop occurred under water deficit, management that may be interesting for regions with water restrictions.Produtividade do tomateiro em função de lâminas e períodos de suspensão da irrigação RESUMO: O manejo da irrigação é essencial para a produtividade e qualidade dos frutos de tomateiro. Objetivou-se neste estudo avaliar a produtividade do tomateiro para processamento industrial "Híbrido BRS Sena" submetido à lâminas e períodos de suspensão da irrigação antes da colheita, irrigado por um sistema de gotejamento subterrâneo, na região Sul de Goiás, Brasil (17º 49' 19,5" S e 49º 12' 11,3" O), nos anos de 2015 e 2016. Os experimentos foram instalados no delineamento em blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições, em parcelas subdivididas. Nas parcelas avaliaram-se cinco níveis de irrigação (50, 75, 100, 125 e 150% da evapotranspiração da cultura) e nas subparcelas cinco períodos de suspensão da irrigação (0, 7, 14, 21 e 28 dias antes da colheita). Aos 125 dias após o transplantio das mudas avaliou-se a produtividade de frutos verdes, maduros, podres e total, a produtividade da água e as percentagens de frutos verdes, maduros e podres. As maiores produtividades totais de frutos (105,86 e 58,60 t ha -1 ) foram obtidas com reposições hídricas que variaram de 125,47 (615,09 mm) e 132,11% (564,00 mm) da evapotranspiração da cultura, nos dois experimentos, respectivamente. As plantas cultivadas sob déficit e excesso hídrico, aumentaram a incidência de frutos podres e diminuíram a de frutos maduros. A suspensão da irrigação antes da colheita diminuiu a produtividade da cultura, aumentou a incidência de frutos podres e di...

Tomato yield as a function of water depths and irrigation suspension periods

Frizzone

et al. 2019

“…This response was verified in both years (Figures 2A and B). The results found are similar to those of Rebouças Neto et al (2017) in Fortaleza, CE, Brazil, using the Heinz 9498 tomato hybrid for industrial processing and the dominator F1 hybrid, when they concluded that irrigations below 120% of the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) reduced the diameter and average fruit mass.…”

“…Water is one of the factors that most affect the development, yield, and industrial quality of processing tomato crops. Generally, deficit irrigations favor fruit quality (total soluble solids and titratable acidity) and water productivity and can harm the crop yield (Patanè et al, 2011;Moreira et al, 2012;Wang et al, 2015;Nangare et al, 2016;Rebouças Neto et al, 2017;Wang & Xing, 2017;Samui et al, 2020).…”

“…Similar results were observed in Brazil (Moreira et al, 2012;Silva et al, 2018;Silva et al, 2019) and other countries (Wang et al, 2015;Wang & Xing, 2017;Samui et al, 2020), when was possible to conclude that the water deficit elevates the total soluble solids content and the acidity of tomato fruit. However, this procedure tends to reduce the yield and fruits size of the crop due to water stress (Soares et al, 2013;Morales et al, 2015;Rebouças Neto et al, 2017;Viol et al, 2018).…”

Physicochemical characteristics of tomato fruits for industrial processing according to the irrigation management

Rodrigues

et al. 2022

This study was carried out to evaluate the postharvest quality of processing tomato fruits, submitted to irrigation depths and periods of suspension of irrigation before harvest, irrigated by subsurface drip in Cerrado areas in the southern region of Goiás State, Brazil, in 2015 and 2016. The experiments were established under a randomized block design, with four replicates arranged in a split plots scheme. In the plots, five irrigation depths were evaluated (50, 75, 100, 125 and 150% of the crop evapotranspiration) and, in the subplots, five periods of suspension of irrigation (0, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days before harvest) were assessed. After harvesting, which occurred at 125 days after transplanting the seedlings, the average fruit mass, fruit shape (longitudinal and transversal diameter), total soluble solids content, titratable acidity, pH, firmness, pulp yield, and water productivity for pulp yield were evaluated. Irrigation deficit, with the replacement of less than 100% of crop evapotranspiration, allowed to save water but significantly reduced the size of the fruits and the production of concentrated pulp. The suspension of irrigation before harvest decreased pulp yield and fruit size. The highest water productivity for pulp yield of tomato fruits occurred under water deficit with 50% of crop evapotranspiration. Irrigation depths from 50 to 150% of crop evapotranspiration and suspension before harvest does not influence total soluble solids content, pH, and fruit firmness.

Irrigation depths and yield response factor in zucchini cultivation

et al. 2018

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different irrigation depths on productive performance and yield response of zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.). A field trial was carried out in the experimental area of the Meteorological Station of the Federal University of Ceará, CE, Brazil. The experimental design was randomized blocks, with six treatments and four replicates. The treatments adopted were: 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180% of the reference evapotranspiration (ETo), estimated by Penman-Monteith (EToPM) and applied by drip irrigation. Fruit weight, number of fruits, fruit length, fruit diameter, pulp thickness, soluble solids and yield were analyzed, as well as water use efficiency (WUE). The methodology proposed by FAO Bulletin 33 was used to calculate the yield response factor (Ky). The 567 mm irrigation depth equivalent to 159% EToPM led to the maximum total crop yield estimated at 24,808 kg ha-1. Highest WUE (64 kg mm-1) was found for the total irrigation depth of 186 mm (30% ETo). Ky values indicated that the crop could be considered as little sensitive (Ky < 1) to water deficit (50, 60, 70, 80 and 90% of the optimal water depth), tending to be proportionally sensitive (Ky = 1) to more severe water deficits (30, 60 and 90% EToPM).
