Features of regimens of drip irrigation of cultivated crops

Abstract

The purpose. To improve and scientifically ground drip irrigation regimes of tilled crops in the steppe zone of Ukraine. Methods. Field short-time experiments, generally accepted laboratory methods and mathematical statistics methods. Results. Effect of the elements of drip irrigation technology on soil water regime, water consumption and productivity of tilled crops was studied; mechanisms of water regimes formation, water consumption, productivity as well as the dependence «water consumption-yield» when using drip irrigation for tilled crops were determined. Concluslon. Optimal parameters of drip irrigation regimes for tilled crops in the steppe zone of Ukraine were scientifically proved.
