Effect of using drip irrigation on the growth, yield and its components of soybean grown in a low rainfall region in Japan
Field experiments were carried out for 3 years to assess the effect of using drip irrigation on the growth and yield of two Japanese soybean cultivars in Kagawa Prefecture, which has the second-lowest rainfall in Japan. The treatments were drip irrigation (Drip) and rainfed (Rainfed) from the bloomi...
