“…The fewest number of days from sprouting to botanical maturity was observed in the black and straw mulch (153 days), while the vegetation was delayed by a few days in red mulch. Debbarma et al, 2019 got that the minimum number of days to 50 % flowering was noticed in treatment by receiving 40 % irrigation and using black plastic mulch in bell pepper grown in protected houses. Molla et al, 2019 found that the earliest dates to 50% flowering, 50% pod setting, and maturity in hot pepper were attained with transparent plastic mulch followed by dry banana leaves mulch.…”

“…Mulching has become an important practice in modern field production due to benefits such as an increase in soil temperature, reduced weed pressure, moisture conservation and efficient use of water, reduction of certain pests, higher crop yields, more efficient use of soil nutrients, and better microbial activity in the soil through the improvement of soil agrophysical properties (Iqbal et al, 2009;Marichamy et al, 2016;Ray & Biswasi, 2016). The mulch materials influence the number of flowers also reduce the number of days to flower as well as have a positive effect on the fruit set (Kumar & Verma, 2009;Iqbal et al, 2009;Ahmad et al, 2011;Marichamy et al, 2016;Verma et al, 2016;Tomar et al, 2018;Molla et al, 2019;Debbarma et al, 2019). Many studies also reported an increment in the early and total yield of vegetables grown on different mulching materials (Ibarra-Jimenez et al, 2004;Kumar and Verma, 2009;Molla et al, 2019;Debbarma et al, 2019;Karki et al, 2020;Bogevska et al, 2021;Adamović et al, 2021).…”

Yield can be improved by using mulches in vegetables from 17.39% in chili peppers to 60.74% in broccoli (Ray & Biswasi, 2016).…”

Mulching is a common practice of covering the soil to make favorable conditions for plant growth, development, and efficient crop production. The study aimed to determine the influence of different mulching materials on some parameters of pepper Kapija type grown in an open field. The experiment was set in the village of Kutretino near Demir Hisar, during the season of 2018. The treatments were as follows: no mulch (bare soil) -as a control treatment, straw mulch, black film mulch, white on black (double face) film mulch, and red film mulch. A single experimental plot was 15 m 2 with a density of 100 plants per plot organized in a complete randomized block design in four replications. During the vegetation, there was monitoring of some phenological stages. In addition, on ten plants per replication, the number of flowers and the number of fertilized flowers were recorded. The earlier botanical maturity was in straw mulch and black foil mulch or 153 days after germination. The latest was in red foil mulch or 161 days after germination. The largest number of flowers had the plants from the black foil mulch an average of 11.83 flowers, out of which 10.95 were fertilized, which means that 92.56% of the flowers set fruit. Plants on red mulch had the least number of flowers, 7.33 on average, of which 5.73 were fertilized, leading to 78.17% of fruit set. White on black mulch had the highest percentage of fruit set (93.7%) because of favoring condition.

“…Therefore, the availability of adequate soil moisture gave good supply with sufficient and optimum irrigation water amount improved plant roots characteristics and temperature positively enhanced biochemical and physiological plant activities, increased availability, absorption and usage of essential nutrients, which in turn resulted in increased plant growth traits and vice versa in the case of insufficient irrigation water amounts which contributes and improving cellular plant growth of the plant in sweet pepper. Debbarma et al (2019) studied the effects of drip irrigation regimes on sweet pepper production. Four drip irrigation regimes (100, 80, 60 and 40 % of crop water requirement) and surface irrigation.…”

This study was carried out at private farm, Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt, to investigate the response of deficit irrigation water under both traditional and drip irrigation systems combined with soil amendments, on the growth and chemical constituents of pepper plants (Capsicum annum L. "California Wonder"). The experiment tested 30 treatments arranged in strip split plot design. The horizontal-plots were allocated to the irrigation systems (surface and drip irrigation), whereas the vertical-plots were devoted to the irrigation regimes of 40, 60 and 80% from the irrigation water requirement (IWR), while the subplots were included five soil amendments (without, 250, 500 kg.fed -1 potassium silicate ore, and 35 and 70 kg.fed -1 potassium humate). The results of both seasons indicated that, drip irrigation system produced significantly higher values of vegetative growth characteristics and chemical constituents than surface irrigation system. The irrigation regime treatment at 80% following irrigation at 60 from IWR were recorded significantly highest values. The results also showed that, the higher average values were obtained from soil amendments at 70 kg/fed from potassium humate following with 500 kg/fed from potassium silicate. In addition, the results indicated that the higher average values of vegetative growth and chemical constituents were obtained from soil amendments at 70 kg/fed. from potassium humate following with 500 kg/fed. from potassium silicate under drip irrigation system at 80% from IWR following irrigation at 60% from IWR. Therefore, we recommend this treatment because it saves irrigation water and obtains the best vegetative growth and chemical constituents traits of sweet pepper plants.

“…Over the past three decades, studies into defcit irrigation have investigated the efects of diferent irrigation water application regimes (100% of crop water requirement (ET c ) or feld capacity water content (FC), 80% ET c or FC, and 60% ET c or FC) and irrigation frequencies (daily, 2 days, and up to 5 days irrigation interval) on the growth and yield of various crops including green pepper [9][10][11][12][13]. While some studies have shown that reducing water supply to crops during the growing period led to adverse efects on yield and growth of crops [13], others have reported that defcit irrigation can potentially lead to signifcant savings of water, improved water productivity, and increased crop yields [7].…”

This study aimed to determine the optimum levels of irrigation regime and irrigation schedule based on crop water productivity for the sustainable production of green pepper in a water-limiting tropical savannah agroecological zone. The study was conducted at the Hydro Farm of MotorKing Company Limited in the Tamale Metropolis, Northern Region, Ghana. The experimental design was a 2 × 3 factorial experiment laid out in a randomized complete block and replicated five times. Irrigation schedule at two levels (one-time daily application and split daily application at 60% morning and 40% evening) and irrigation regime at three levels (100% ETc, 80% ETc, and 60% ETc) were the factors. The “Yolo Wonder” variety of green pepper was the test crop. The crop was planted at a planting distance of 0.3 m within rows and 0.5 m between rows. Treatments were applied using a drip irrigation system. Crop water requirements (ETc) of green pepper were estimated using the CROPWAT model. Crop yield and water applied under each treatment were determined. Crop yield was measured at harvest as the total weight of fruits per hectare. Crop water productivity was determined under each treatment as crop yield per unit of water consumed. Data analysis was done in Genstat (12th edition). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Duncan’s multiple range test at 5% level of significance were employed to separate differences in treatment means. The results suggest that both irrigation regime and irrigation schedule have significant influence on the yield and crop water productivity of green pepper. Irrigating at 60% ETc and split irrigation (60% morning and 40% evening) gave significantly higher yields and crop water productivity compared to the other levels of the factors. This study demonstrated that irrigation schedule and irrigation regime are important factors to consider in the optimization of water management for green pepper; however, further research is needed to identify the optimal levels of these factors and the most effective irrigation strategies for the crop in different environments.
