As global pressure on water resources intensifies, it is essential
that scientists understand the role that water plays in the
development of crops and how such knowledge can be applied to
improve water productivity. Linking crop physiology, agronomy and
irrigation practices, this book focuses on eleven key fruit crops
upon which millions of people in the tropics and subtropics depend
for their livelihoods (avocado, cashew, Citrus spp., date palm,
lychee, macadamia, mango, olive, papaya, passion fruit and
pineapple). Each chapter reviews international irrigation research
on an individual fruit crop, identifying opportunities for
improving the effectiveness of water allocation and encouraging
readers to link scientific knowledge with practical applications.
Clearly written and well illustrated, this is an ideal resource for
engineers, agronomists and researchers concerned with how the
productivity of irrigated agriculture can be improved, in the
context of climate change, and the need for growers to demonstrate
good irrigation practices.
