The aim of the present study was an attempt to calculate the cost-effectiveness of asparagus postharvest drip irrigation in the Central Poland. The results of field experiments on drip irrigation of 13 North-American asparagus cultivars, carried out at Kruszyn Krajenski in the vicinity of Bydgoszcz were investigated in the zone of the largest precipitation deficiency in Poland. The drip irrigation system's economic calculation was conducted following the methodology suggested by Grabarczyk (1987). The effectiveness of drip irrigation (ranging from 0 to 157 %) was the highest for cultivars Jersey Deluxe (157 %) and Jersey Giant (142 %). Lack of significant response to drip irrigation was found in case of cultivars Purple Passion, Jersey King and Atlas. Other cultivars (Jersey Supreme, Jersey Knight, Grande, Apollo, UC 157, NJ 953, UC 115, JWC 1) gave an increase in marketable yield of 35-79 % due to drip irrigation. Economic results of drip irrigation, depending on the increase in produce value and assumed drip irrigation costs were positive in case of 10 cultivars. The drip irrigation of Jersey Deluxe and Jersey Giant turned out most cost-effective. Irrigation was also very costeffective in the case of cultivars UC115, NJ953, Jersey Knight, Jersey Supreme, UC157, Grande, Apollo and JWC 1. Drip irrigation was unprofitable in case of the following cultivars: Purple Passion, Jersey King and Atlas.

“…The economical profit depends on the variety and differences may be as high as three times in terms of total yield and even seven times in marketable yield (Nichols and Fisher, 1999). Variety and growth conditions will, however, not only affect crop productivity, but also spear quality (Poll, 1995;Paschold et al, 1996 andMullen et al, 1999).…”

The aim of this research work was to study the effect of variety and cultivation region on mineral elements and protein content of white asparagus spears (Asparagus officinalis L.). Therefore an extended field survey was conducted in the regions of Braunschweig (Lower Saxony) and Erfurt (Thuringia). Statistically significant differences between cultivation regions were found for Ca, Mg and sulphate. Additionally, spear samples of crop performance experiments with new varieties and genotypes in Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein were analyzed. For nitrate and sulphate significant differences were found between varieties in Schleswig-Holstein. In Lower Saxony, genotypical differences were determined for nitrate, sulphate, Ca, S, Fe, Zn, Mn and Cu.

“…On the other hand, asparagus, as a light soil plant, reacts very positively to irrigation treatments, which are used in the postharvest period, usually from June to August, in the climatic and soil conditions of Central Europe. Postharvest irrigation significantly increases the yield of asparagus spears in the following year [3,4,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16].…”

The aim of this study was to verify the response of 13 American asparagus cultivars cultivated for green spear on surface postharvest drip irrigation. Irrigation, used to compensate for periodic deficiencies in precipitation, allows for high- and good-quality crops for many species. The field experiment was carried out in 2006–2008 on a very light sandy soil in central Europe (Poland). Irrigation treatments were applied using the tensiometer indications. Water requirements of asparagus were calculated on the base of reference evapotranspiration and crop coefficients. The following evaluations were made: Height, diameter, and number of summer stalks, as well marketable yield, weight, and number of consumption green spears. Drip irrigation applied for 2 years (2006–2007) in the postharvest period had a positive effect on all studied traits in both summer stalks and green spears in 2007–2008. A significant increase in the height, number, and diameter of summer stalks, as well an increase in the marketable yield, weight, and number of green spears was observed for most of the cultivars. In general, postharvest drip irrigation of asparagus cultivated in very light sandy soil significantly contributes to the increase in productivity of American cultivars of this species.
