“…The highest yield was achieved when the SMP threshold was controlled above −20 kPa. In contrast, the seed cotton yields ranged from 5.04 to 5.76 Mg/ha in 2009, which was in accordance with the results reported for other regions under drip irrigation (Plaut et al, 1988;Ibragimov et al, 2007;Hu et al, 2009; Dagdelen et al, 2009) and higher than the average yield level achieved by local farmers. ANOVA revealed that the SMP threshold had a significant (P ≤ 0.05) effect on the seed cotton yield in 2009.…”

“…Dagdelen et al (2009) and Ünlü et al (2011) reported that the IWUE of cotton in Turkey under drip irrigation was 14.4 and 33.1 kg ha −1 mm −1 , respectively. Ibragimov et al (2007) found that the IWUE was between 6.2 and 11.2 kg ha −1 mm −1 in Uzbekistan, which was similar to the values observed in this experiment. The similarity of the two results may have been due to the vicinity of the regions.…”

“…Numerous cotton irrigation studies have revealed that drip irrigation increased the cotton yield by over 15% when compared with flooding and furrow irrigation (Wanjura et al, 2002;Ibragimov et al, 2007;Dagdelen et al, 2009;Ünlü et al, 2011).…”

“…Fang et al (2009) revealed that scheduling irrigation based on crop responses to stress at different growth stages can improve water use efficiency. Ibragimov et al (2007) stated that, more deficit irrigation rate provided both high yields and optimum water use efficiency. Kang, et al (2002) revealed that, controlled ranges of soil water content during growing seasons can improve the grain yield and water use efficiency.…”

This study was conducted at Gezira scheme -Sudan during the period from 2009 to 2010 in a heavy clay soil to investigate the effect of management practices on water use efficiency for the different crops irrigated in Gezira scheme. The data was collected from the scheme Administration. The study was organized by using T-Test. Cropwat4 Windows was used to calculate crop water requirements (CWR) and the net irrigation requirements (NIR). The results showed that, Water use efficiency significantly (P ≤ 0.05) affected by the different management practices. Sorghum gave the highest mean value (0.48) of economic water use efficiency as compared to cotton which ranked the least (0.19). Technical water use efficiency for Sorghum and groundnut recorded the highest means values (0.34 and 0.30 kg/m 3 ) while cotton gave the lowest (0.07 kg/m 3 ). Wheat gave the highest mean values (0.87) of Hydraulic water use efficiency as compared to sorghum which ranked the least (0.59). It can be concluded that, proper technical guidelines for irrigation network management, operation and scheduling should be developed and followed.

“…While the mean annual precipitation is only 58 mm, the potential evapotranspiration rate equals 2,540 mm ). Mulched drip irrigation, which saves water and increases water use efficiency as compared to furrow irrigation (Ibraginmov et al 2007), is widely used in the area to irrigate cotton, a major cash crop in Xinjiang (Hou et al 2009). Cotton yields generally decrease with a reduction in irrigation, irrespective of whether conventional irrigation technologies or drip irrigation is used (Singh et al 2010;Ü nlü et al 2011), and are also limited by poor quality of irrigation water and related problems of soil salinization (Leidi and Saiz 1997;Vulkan-Levy et al 1998;Qadir and Shams 1997;Henggeler 2004;Chen et al 2010).…”

Evaluation of mulched drip irrigation for cotton in arid Northwest China

et al. 2013

Field experiments were conducted in arid Southern Xinjiang, Northwest China, for 3 years to evaluate sustainable irrigation regimes for cotton. The experiments involved mulched drip irrigation during the growing season and flood irrigation afterward. The drip irrigation experiments included control experiments, experiments with deficit irrigation during one crop growth stage, and alternative irrigation schemes in which freshwater was used during one growth stage and relatively saline water in the others. The average cotton yield over 3 years varied between 3,575 and 5,095 kg/ha, and the irrigation water productivity between 0.91 and 1.16 kg/m 3 . Crop sensitivities to water stress during the different growth stages ranged from early flowering-belling (most sensitive) [ seedling [ budding [ late flowering-belling (least sensitive), while sensitivities to salt stress ranged from late flowering-belling [ budding [ seedling [ early flowering-belling. Although mulched drip irrigation during the growing season caused an increase in salinity in the root zone, flood irrigation after harvesting leached the accumulated salts to below background levels. Numerical simulations, based on the 3-year experiments and extended by another 20 years, suggest that mulched drip irrigation using alternatively fresh and brackish water during the growing season and flood irrigation with freshwater after harvesting is a sustainable irrigation practice that should not lead to soil salinization.
