Quantifying deep drainage in an irrigated cotton landscape

Ringrose-Voase, Anthony (CSIRO Land And Water, 2011-06-30)

Deep drainage below the root zone is still the least understood component of the water balance, especially in cracking clay soils.

Root Zone Salinity Risks in the Lower Murray Districts

Stevens, Rob, Schrale, Gerrit, Biswas, Tapas (2009-08-17)

As a result of improved irrigation management and systems, growers in the Lower Murray (Riverland-Sunraysia) horticultural region have improved their water use efficiency (WUE) over the past two decades from about 50%

Salinity Impact on Lower Murray Horticulture

Schrale, Gerrit (2009-08-17)

* Determine/update the crop salinity relationships * Determine the variability of EC (soil water) and leaching efficiency in the field * Simulate different scenarios of River Murray salinity at Morgan * Input to the M

Salinity impact on Lower Murray horticulture

Sanderson, Graeme, McLean Geoff, Bourne, John, Biswas, Tapas K., Schrale, Gerrit, Stevens, Rob (2009-08-17)

The project was developed to test the hypothesis: a depressed leaching efficiency (LE) in the Lower Murray irrigation districts raises the root zone salinity and, improved water use efficiency (WUE) has an upper limit

The Fate of Nitrogen Fertilizer Applied to Cotton

Humphreys, Liz, Freny, John, Lilley, Dianne, Smith, Barry (1988-08-17)

Cotton growers commonly apply nitrogen (N) fertilizer at rates of between 100 and 200 kg N/ha, yet the cotton plants seldom recover more than 40% of the applied N, and often much less.
