<sec>ObjectiveWater is one of the important factors restricting rice growth and has a significant impact on rice yield and quality.By analyzing the effects of water stress at different growth stages on rice yield and quality,this paper
Water and nutrient management effects on water use and yield of drip irrigated citrus in vertisol under a sub-humid region[J]. P Panigrahi,A K Srivastava.Journal of Integrative Agriculture. 2017(05)Panigrahi P, Srivastava AK (2017) Water and nutrient management effects on water use and yield ...
The results show that the overall utilization efficiency of agricultural water resources in China presents a fluctuating downward trend, and the regional differences are significant. A single threshold effect on agricultural water consumption was found in five variables: per capita water resources, ...
Hunger It takes a lot of water to grow food and care for animals. Experts say that globally we use 70% of our water sources for agriculture and irrigation and only 10% for domestic uses. Less water means farming, and other crops that need water to grow have a lower yield. It means f...
The expansion of reservoirs to cope with droughts and water shortages is hotly debated in many places around the world. We argue that there are two counterintuitive dynamics that should be considered in this debate: supply–demand cycles and reservoir ef
Meanwhile, the distribution of regional grain production influences the allocation of water resources in agriculture and other industries. Due to the difference between the economic benefits created by industry and agriculture, grain virtual water flow will have effects on the regional economic development...
These studies show that water stress can compromise economic development, particularly in socially vulnerable regions (Distefano and Kelly, 2017 and Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations; FAO, 2017). Water scarcity limits industrial, agricultural, and energy production, which can lead...

Irrigation AgricultureIn Mexico's case, the scarcity of water in the north of the country is worrying, even more from the agricultural point of view because according to the results of general circulation models, a major impact due to global warming is expected in this region, and it will ...
Scarcity of water is a severe environmental constraint to plant productivity. Drought-induced loss in crop yield probably exceeds losses from all other causes, since both the severity and duration of the stress are critical. Here, we have reviewed the effects of drought stress on the growth, phe...
