“…Mirshekari et al (2012) mentioned that, the highest number of primary branches per plant, capsules number per plant, seed numbers per capsule, seed and oil yields per faddan and oil percentage of flax seed were obtained from control irrigation treatment, while limited water stress during flowering and seed filling stages resulted in lowest these traits. Bauer et al (2015) inferred that, irrigation significantly increased seed weight, although it did not significantly impact on flax seed yield and the average of seed yield under irrigation was higher than rainfed condition.…”

“…8, No. 10; these obtained by Bauer et al (2015) as they mentioned that, the higher fiber contents along with the higher straw yields resulted in the fiber-type cultivars yielding 60-70% more fiber than the seed-type cultivar. The effect of the first order interactions (seasons × irrigation intervals), (seasons × flax cultivars) and (irrigation intervals × flax cultivars) on fiber yield and its technological characters are presented in Figure 3.…”

“…El-Seidy et al (2010) and El-Seidy et al (2015) reported that, flax oil types realized the highest seed yield per faddan, oil percentage and oil yield per faddan followed by dual purpose types, while the lowest values were recorded by fiber types. Bauer et al (2015) concluded that, the seed-type cultivar had higher seed weight and seed yield than the fiber-type cultivar. The differences between the tested cultivars could mainly be attributed to the differences in their genetical constitution and their response to the environmental conditions.…”

“…In other words, water stressed plants produced less fiber compared to irrigated plants with adequate water. Moreover, Bauer et al (2015) reported that, irrigation increased fiber yield compared to rainfed plants.…”

Flax is a potential winter crop for Egypt that can be grown for both seed and fiber. The study was conducted during two successive winter seasons of 2013/14 and 2014/15 in the experimental farm of El-Gemmeiza Agricultural Research Station, Agriculture Research Centre, Egypt. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of irrigation intervals (25, 35 and 45) on the straw, seed, oil, fiber yields and quality of flax cultivars (Sakha1, Giza9 and Giza10). Irrigation intervals significantly influenced all studied traits except oil percentage. Irrigated flax plants every 35 days gave the maximum values for all traits, while irrigation every 45 days gave the minimum values. In respect to cultivars, significant differences were found in most yield and quality characters. Furthermore, the performance of Sakha 1 cultivar was superior in main stem diameter, biological, straw yields per faddan, seed index, seed, oil yields per faddan and oil percentage. Meanwhile, Giza 10 cultivar highly significantly out yielded Giza9 and Sakha1 in plant height, fiber fineness, fiber length, total fiber percentage and fiber yield per faddan. The interactions between irrigation intervals and flax cultivars were highly significant for all traits. Based on the results, Sakha1 cultivar recorded the maximum values for main stem diameter, biological, straw yields per faddan, seed, oil yields per faddan and oil percentage and Giza 10 recorded the maximum values for plant height, fiber fineness, fiber length, total fiber percentage and fiber yield per faddan under irrigation of plants every 35 days.

Background Periods of drought are projected to increase in intensity and frequency across many parts of the world, affecting freshwater availability for agriculture and limiting cropping productivity. Exploring innovative opportunities to utilise novel drought resistant crops should be prioritized to sustainably meet growing demand for food and fibre. The potential benefits of industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) as a drought resistant fibre crop have been touted, but the underlying evidence base of such claims is conflicting. Hemp has several drought resistance traits that allow it to thrive under water deficit, including deep roots and effective stomatal regulation, but studies report varying results for water requirements and water use efficiency. Scope In this context, we provide a comprehensive discussion of the current state of knowledge regarding fibre hemp water use in a range of environments and between varieties, highlighting physiological attributes that contribute to its drought resistance with a view to guiding and stimulating further research. Conclusions With relatively low water requirements compared to other fibre crops, hemp shows great potential as a drought resistant crop, offering exciting possibilities to produce sustainable fibre in a changing climate.
