Seeding and NP Fertilizer Rates’ Effect on Irrigated Wheat Yield and Water Use Efficiency in Midland Tropical Environment

Horticultural Irrigation Systems and Aquacultural Water Usage: A Perspective for the Use of Aquaponics to Generate a Sustainable Water Footprint

“…Therefore, plant farmers are in need of advancing in new irrigation methods and are forced to implement more water-efficient strategies, which compromise fewer water units by maintaining the same or obtaining a higher production rate [17,48]. The effective usage of water also has an economic impact because the under-and overuse of water in complex irrigation systems are incrementing operational costs, especially for smaller farmers due to lower economic benefits at the end of the production cycle [49].…”

Impact of silicate fertilizer on soil properties and yield of bread wheat in Nitisols of tropical environment

“…Soil acidity and depletion of essential plant nutrients are among the major abiotic stresses that constrained wheat productivity in Ethiopia in general and in the study area in particular [ [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] ]. About 43 % of the cultivable land in Ethiopia is affected by soil acidity [ 12 ], of which about 28 % is categorized under strongly acidic (pH < 5.5) (11).…”
