Influence of Deficit Irrigation and Absorbent Materials on “Hass” Avocado Cv.:B- Leaf Chemical Composition, Water Use Efficiency and Economical Returns
Avocado (Persea americana Mill.) is a globally important fruit crop, with the 'Hass' cultivar being the most widely cultivated. Water scarcity threatens the sustainability of avocado production in arid and semi-arid regions. During (2023–2024) field study was established to evaluate the effects of two soil absorbent materials biopolymer and zeolite applied at 500, 1000, and 1500 g/tree under three regulated deficit irrigation regimes (100%, 80%, and 70% of irrigation requirements, IR) on leaf chemical
Influence of Irrigation Method and Fertilization Type on Avocado Yield and Quality
This research study investigated the impact of watering method and fertilization on avocado yield and quality in newly reclaimed areas. The research attempted to choose the optimum irrigation system and fertilization type to improve avocado yield and quality. Different irrigation systems (micro-sprinkler, drip irrigation and combined approach of micro-sprinkler and drip) with different fertilization types (mineral fertilization, fertilization using fallen avocado leaves+mineral fertilization and
