This study looks at the determinants of the microbiological quality of stored drinking water among households residing in areas where communities use different types of irrigation water. The study used multiple
In India, the irrigated area consists of about 36 per cent of the net sown area. There are various techniques of irrigation practices in different parts of India. These methods of irrigation differ in how the water obtained from the source is distributed within the field. In ...
The findings revealed that with increasing years of artificial afforestation, soil pH gradually increased, and soil moisture content rose in the 0–20 cm layer while declining in deeper layers (20–100 cm) in the Maxian Mountain region of the Loess Plateau. Moreover, the total carbon, nitrogen...
The binder was then sprayed in pulses onto the fluidized bed using the pump and nozzle system to begin granulation. The application was performed intermittently, with a 30-s interval between each spray, allowing the granules enough time to dry and preventing aggregation or collapse of the bed. ...
The true potential for irrigation in Africa is still unclear, but irrigation expansion in Africa will not be the “low hanging fruit” that it was in Asia. Africa’s low use of irrigation also partially explains its weak response of fertilizer intensification to rising population density. Third,...
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most important and widely consumed vegetables around the world. The production of tomatoes is affected severely due to soil salinization and/or quality of irrigation water resulting in a considerable decline in the yield (Turhan and Seniz, 2012; El...

Different Types of water (agricultural drainage water, treated sewage water, and Nile irrigation water) were obtained from different resources: treated sewage water was obtained from a bilateral sewage treatment plant in the new city of Beni Suef, and the water analyses are shown in Table 2. Agr...
During the cherry tree budding phase, there is widespread irrigation and application of mulch while laying down water pipes. Prior to the flowering phase, extensive watering was performed, followed by drip irrigation through water pipes a week later. Irrigation of the trees during the late ...
Means in the same category with the same letters are not significantly different from each other at 5% level of probability. Table 2. Effect of irrigation, varieties and weed management techniques on number of nodules plant−1, grain yield kg ha−1 and CBR of chickpea during both first ...
