Plovdiv, Bulgaria, Corn Observation 2014 - Figaro 42012'20.26" N 24048'41.42" E
Observation targets: 1. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different irrigation layout (laterals distance) 2. Determination of the irrigation scheduling by crop consumption and soil moisture sensing. 3. Raising Corn as a second crop after wheat, without conventional tillage, using strip tillage as alternative till in order to save energy, and water stored in the soil.

The Influence of the Irrigation Regime on Cotton Production in the Upper Galilee The main objectives of this research were to (a) evaluate the response of seed cotton yield to different water regimes; (b) determine the appropriate irrigation practice towards the end of the season.
Treatments: Commercial Irrigation regime (daily irrigation), sharp irrigation reduction after the first open boll appeared. Commercial Irrigation regime (daily irrigation), Moderate irrigation reduction after the first open boll appeared. Stress irrigation regime during the vegetation period, normal irrigation starting with squares appearance, Simulation with Aqua-Crop.

Commercial irrigation refer to the local custom of the irrigation, Semi-Automation refer to irrigation activation by constant irrigation quantity (determine by ETo*Kc), and monitoring this regime by soil moisture sensors. Irrigation monitoring: Each plot consists of two tensiometers stations, each station with 3 tensiometers: 1. Between two drippers, 0.05 m from the drip lateral (Horizontal, depth 0.3 m. 2. Between two drippers, 0.30 m from the drip lateral (Horizontal), depth 0.3 m. 3. Between two drippers, 0.05 m from the drip lateral (Horizontal, depth 0.6 m. The idea is to monitor the wetted area, with most of the active root zone.
