The sustainability of irrigated agriculture is threatening due to adverse climate change, given
future projections that every one in four people on Earth might be suffering from extreme …

Precision agricultural greenhouse systems indicate considerable scope for improvement of
irrigation management practices, since growers typically irrigate crops based on their …

Precision irrigation with sensors has proven to be effective for water saving in crop
production. An Internet of Things (IoT) system is necessary for monitoring real-time data from …

The aim of this study was to investigate irrigation strategies and sowing dates that would
maximise soybean yield and water productivity. It is based on field experiments conducted …

The objective of this short communication is to investigate the interactive effects of CIF,
suction and volumetric water content (VWC) on infiltration rate for compacted soil–biochar …

Predictive weather-based models are widely used to schedule irrigation through the
estimation of crop evapotranspiration. However, perceiving real-time crop water …

Sparse vegetation and soil desertification are widespread phenomena in coastal regions
due to the accumulation of excess sodium in soil, which results in degraded land quality and …

Leaf turgor pressure is a relevant metric for determining plant water content. To diagnose an
apple tree water shortage, it is critical to precisely establish the features of leaf turgor …

Monitoring of water retention behavior in soils is an essential process to schedule irrigation.
To this end, soil moisture tensiometers usually equipped with mechanical manometers …

Dielectric sensors use electrical permittivity as a proxy for water content. They determine
permittivity by using sensor‐type‐specific techniques and calibration functions, and relate it …
