Modeling the pecan nut growth and carbohydrate requirement and application of models
(2021-12)
The pecan nut is an important nut fruit in the USA economy, contributing more than $3.5 billion to the country's economy. The optimal time of different orchard activities like irrigation management, pesticide spray, and ...
Optimizing management of irrigated cotton in a degree day limited environment
(2023-05)
The decline of the Ogallala Aquifer has jeopardized the future of agriculture in the states that it underlies. This has increased interest in growing crops with lower water requirements in the central Ogallala region, such ...
Evaluating the Impacts of Variable Irrigation Management Strategies on the Performance of Cotton and Grain Sorghum Using Monitoring and Modeling Techniques
(2019-05-01)
Diminishing water resources have threatened irrigated agriculture in many semi-arid and arid regions across the globe. In these regions, both surface and groundwater resources have declined due to persistent droughts and ...
Monitoring and modeling soil salinity dynamics at greenhouse and field scales
(2018-12)
An integrated monitoring and modeling approach was undertaken in greenhouse and field scale in terms of three main studies. In the first study, the changes in soil salinity and several other chemical properties were ...
Assessing the energy consumption efficiency, irrigation application uniformity and life cycle assessment of groundwater-based irrigation systems in Oklahoma
(2018-12)
Irrigation systems across Oklahoma were tested from 2015 to 2018 with the aim of determining their energy consumption efficiencies, irrigation uniformities, and application efficiencies. The actual Overall Pumping Efficiency ...
Transport of Swine Effluent Salts when Land-Applied in a Semi-Arid Region through a Subsurface Drip Irrigation System
(Oklahoma State University, 2004-12-01)
This thesis concerns the salt transport around a subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) system land-applying swine effluent in the panhandle of Oklahoma. Three plots equipped with different emitter sizes are utilized. Soil samples ...
Economic approach on allocation of irrigation water under salinity based on different soils for potential irrigated agriculture using the EPIC crop model
(2011-12)
Scope and Method of Study: The objective of this study was to understand the long term effect of using irrigation water with water and soil salinity on cotton yield based on the 15 soil types along the Elm and North Fork ...
Measurement and modeling of soil moisture for irrigation management
(2020-05)
Increasing strain on freshwater resources due to population growths, climate change, and excessive depletion of water resources necessitates research in maximizing beneficial water use in agriculture regions. Smart ...
