Calibration and validation of the AquaCrop model for full and deficit irrigated cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp)
(Science Direct, 2020-10-16)The study aimed at calibrating and validating the AquaCrop model for cowpea under full and deficit irrigation. The experiments used to calibrate and validate AquaCrop consisted of rainfed supplemented with irrigation, ... -
Calibration and validation of the AquaCrop model for full and deficit irrigated cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp)
(Physics and Chemistry of the Earth, Parts A/B/C, 2021-11)The study aimed at calibrating and validating the AquaCrop model for cowpea under full and deficit irrigation. The experiments used to calibrate and validate AquaCrop consisted of rainfed supplemented with irrigation, ... -
COUPLING HYDROLOGICAL AND CROP MODELS FOR IMPROVED AGRICULTURAL WATER MANAGEMENT - A REVIEW
(Bulgarian Journal of Agricultural Science, 2018-04-09)Understanding the relationships among plant, soil, and water is important in agricultural water management practices. Simulation of the soil water balance is central to improving crop water productivity. Individual crop ... -
Effect of Moistube and subsurface drip irrigation on cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (I.) Walp) production in South Africa
(Water SA, 2020-04-29)Moistube Irrigation (MTI) is a new subsurface irrigation technology where the water emits from a semi-permeable membrane at a slow rate depending on applied pressure and soil water potential. There is lack of information ... -
Hydraulic and clogging characteristics of Moistube irrigation as influenced by water quality
(Journal of Water Supply: Research and Technology, 2018-06-12)Irrigation consumes approximately 70% of total freshwater use worldwide. This necessitates the use of efficient irrigation methods such as micro-irrigation. Moistube irrigation (MI) is a new subsurface irrigation technology ... -
Modelling soil water distribution under Moistube irrigation for cowpea (VIGNA unguiculata(L.) Walp.) crop(dagger)
(Irrigation and Drainage, 2020-07-22)Moistube irrigation (MTI) is a type of technology which uses a semipermeable membrane to emit water continuously in response to soil water potential and applied pressure. Soil water dynamics under MTI incorporating plant ... -
Nutritional yield and nutritional water productivity of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) under varying irrigation water regimes
(Water SA, 2020-07)There is a need to mainstream traditional crops in sub-Saharan Africa, in order to tackle food and nutritional insecurity through incorporating nutritional quality into crop water productivity, in the wider context of the ... -
Soil water dynamics under Moistube irrigation
(Physics and Chemistry of the Earth, 2020-02)The design and management of irrigation systems require knowledge of soil water movement. There are few studies on soil water dynamics of Moistube irrigation (MTI) since it is a relatively new type of subsurface irrigation ...
