Partial root zone drying irrigation in papaya (Carica papaya L.) for enhanced water use efficiency under limited water situations
Field experiments were conducted during 2015-17 at ICAR-Indian Institute of Horticultural Research, Hessaraghatta, Bengaluru, to standardize the partial root zone drying irrigation in papaya with 12 treatments in RBD design. The results indicated that better soil moisture in the root zone could be m...

Significantly more primary roots (16.5/plant) were observed when irrigation was scheduled on one side with single emitter meeting 60% of the evaporative demand. PRD irrigation through shifting of laterals recorded significantly higher transpiration rate especially at 50% of ER (8.05 m mol m-2 s-1) as compared to the control (3.95m mol m-2 s-1).

Higher water productivity (23.7 kg/m3) could be obtained by scheduling the irrigation at 40% evaporation replenishment through shifting of laterals with saving of substantial water (1285m3/ha) resulting in higher water use efficiency (237.4 kg/ha.mm).Manjunath B LLaxman R HUpreti K KRaghupati H BSociety for Promotion of Horticulture - Indian Institute of Horticultural Researcharticleevaporation replenishmentpartial root zone drying irrigationshifting of lateralswater use efficiencyPlant cultureSB1-1110ENJournal of Horticultural Sciences, Vol 12, Iss 2, Pp 143-149 (2017) |
