“…Previous findings of sowing methods on plant height did not agree with Soomro et al, (2017), who stated that wheat plant height (cm) was higher under the raised bed irrigation system than the traditional irrigation system. And also with Asif et al, (2020) indicated that there was a significant difference in plant height between the treatments where the highest numbers obtained in bed sowing (104 cm), followed by ridge sowing (103 cm) and then flat sowing (98 cm) in the growing period 2015-16.…”

Field experiments were carried out at Sakha Agricultural Research Station in Egypt to compare the effect of the newly developed raised bed technique with different bed widths (RB130, RB100, RB80 cm) on wheat productivity to the conventional flat basin (FB) method during 2019/2020. The statistical analyses were carried out using a randomized complete block design. According to the results of statistical analysis, using RB130 cultivation gave the highest significant averages of water-saving (21.81%) and the highest averages of wheat 1000 kernels weight (50.05 g) over the FB method. However, no significant differences were found between RB130 and FB method, which produced the highest averages of grain yield, straw yield, and biological yield. Wheat sowing on FB gave the highest significant average of grain yield, straw yield, and biological yield than RB100, RB80 at 5% level of significance, but there were no significant differences in the number of kernels per spike, kernel weight spike, and harvest index ratio between wheat sowing on FB and RB130, RB100 or RB80. There were no significant differences in the number of kernels per spike, kernel weight spike, number of spikes per m2, straw yield, biological yield, and harvest index ratio at 5% level of significance between wheat sowing on RB130, RB100, RB80. But wheat sowing on RB130 produced the highest significant average of crop water productivity and grain yield than RB80 at 5%. Finally, according to the study findings, using raised beds cultivation resulted in saving irrigation water by 15~21% compared to a flat basin.

“…Moreover, these results are in accordance with the findings of Bhuyan et al (2012), who concluded from their study that water use efficiency and crop productivity for production were higher in bed planting over conventional method. In the same direction, Soomro et al (2017) proved the superior effect with planting on raised bed over conventional irrigation systems for yield and water productivity.…”

Egypt faces water scarcity to meet the increasing demand. Therefore, better management of irrigation water for crops assumes high priority among which spearmint is a high water demanding plant. Hence, the current study was undertaken at the Medicinal and Aromatic Research Department Experimental Farm, El-Kanater El-Khairiya, Egypt. It is intended to investigate the effect of different planting practices "raised bed, furrows and convention" on yield productivity and water saving, under three irrigation treatments "120%, 100% and 80% of ETo". The results of two seasons 2016 and 2017 showed that the best vegetative growth and fresh herb yield were obtained using raised bed followed by furrows then conventional planting method under 100% ETo. Essential oil was increased up to 0.7% at 100% ETo under raised bed. It was observed that when compared to planting using conventional methods at 120% ETo, under 80% ETo spearmint yield was increased by about 8.76% and 26.14% for furrows and raised bed in the first season, second season showed same trend. In addition, raised bed under 80% of irrigation applied water produced the maximum amount of water saved when compared to conventional at 120% ETo being 36.14 and 48.38% for 1 st and 2 nd season, respectively.

This study aimed to assess the Effect of irrigation scheduling based on the IW/CPE ratio on soil qualities, growth characteristics and yield of wheat in Eastern Uttar Pradesh. A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of the year 2016-17. In this experiment, the treatment combinations consisting of five irrigation levels viz., CRI stage (I1), 0.6 IW/CPE ratio (I2), 0.8 IW/CPE ratio (I3), 1.0 IW/CPE ratio (I4), and 1.2 IW/CPE ratio (I5) were tried in randomized block design. Whereas the initial irrigation of all treatments is done at the CRI stage (21 DAS), and then, according to the IW/CPE ratio treatments, the crop of the net plot area was harvested from the individual plot for observation. The final seed weight per plot was recorded in kg and converted to q/ha. The result showed the growth attributes, viz., plant height, dry matter accumulation, number of effective shoots per m2, and yield-attributing characters, viz., 1000 grain weight, harvest index, grain, straw, and Biological yield by crop was significantly higher at 1.0 IW/CPE ratio (I4) in the moisture regime, which was at par with 1.2 IW/CPE ratio (I5) in the moisture regime and significantly higher than at the CRI stage (I1), 0.6 IW/CPE ratio (I2), and 0.8 IW/CPE ratio (I3).
