OBSTRUÇÃO DE GOTEJADORES AUTOCOMPENSANTES ENTERRADOS NA IRRIGAÇÃO DE CITROS CAUSADA POR INTRUSÃO RADICULAR  Rubens Duarte Coelho; Luis Fernando Faria; Ralini Ferreira de MéloDepartamento de Engenharia Rural, Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz, Universidade de São Paulo, Piracicaba, SP,  [email protected]  1 RESUMO Este trabalho teve como objetivo obter informações sobre o desempenho de gotejadores enterrados (irrigação subsuperficial), quanto à susceptibilidade dos modelos autocompensantes a intrusão radicular baseado na variação de vazão para a cultura do Citros. As mudas de Citros foram irrigadas por sete modelos diferentes de gotejadores de fluxo autocompensante, instalados a duas profundidades (15 e30 cmda superfície do solo) e em dois níveis de depleção de água no solo (tratamentos úmido e seco). O trabalho foi conduzido em vasos e sob ambiente controlado, utilizando mudas de laranjeira Pêra com enxerto de tangerina Cleópatra em estágio inicial de desenvolvimento. Observaram-se até os 120 dias no início do experimento diferenças de desempenho entre os modelos de emissores ensaiados quanto à penetração de raízes e maior instabilidade de vazão, na presença de raízes e partículas de solo, podendo-se agrupar os modelos avaliados em função do grau de redução de vazão observado. Os tratamentos com diferentes níveis de depleção de água no solo (úmido e seco) não diferiram estatisticamente até 120 dias do início do experimento, porém, notou-se que o sistema radicular do Citros foi mais agressivo na profundidade de solo de30 cm  para o tratamento com maior umidade no solo (úmido). UNITERMOS: gotejamento, variação de vazão, profundidade  COELHO, R.

OBSTRUCTION OF SELF-COMPENSATED EMITTERS IN SUBSURFACE DRIP CITRUS  IRRIGATION (ROOT INTRUSION - SDI)  2 ABSTRACT This work aimed to quantify dripper performance under subsurface drip irrigation (SDI), regarding flow rate variation due to the intrusion of citros roots.  Potted plants were irrigated by seven different models of self-compensated commercial drippers, at two depths (15 and 30 cm) and two soil water depletion levels (wet and dry treatments). After 120 days from the beginning of the experiment it was possible to identify different performances among studied models, related to the root penetration. It was possible to classify dripper models in relation to the degree of flow rate reduction; the irrigation level treatments did not present conclusive results until 120 days of the beginning of the experiment; however, considering the whole period of the experiment evidences, it was observed that the root system was more aggressive in the deepest soil layer (30 cm) and for the wet treatment.   KEYWORDS: drip irrigation, flow variation, depths

Com o propósito de avaliar o potencial de intrusão radicular do eucalipto nas linhas de irrigação em diversos modelos de gotejadores, quando utilizados em irrigação subsuperficial, foi realizado um experimento utilizando caixas d’água de amianto de 100 L em condição de ambiente protegido. Os tratamentos consistiram de 14 modelos de gotejadores de diferentes marcas comerciais, dos quais sete do tipo não compensante e sete do tipo autocompensante de pressão. Os modelos foram instalados em duas profundidades, de 0,15 m e 0,30 m (P15 e P30, respectivamente), e conduzidos em solo mantido à capacidade de campo. Foram realizadas cinco leituras de vazão em intervalos que oscilaram de 32 a 131 dias, totalizando 235 dias. Os resultados mostraram diferenças marcantes no comportamento dos gotejadores do tipo não compensante de pressão daqueles do tipo autocompensante e, dentro de cada tipo, diferenças significativas quanto à suscetibilidade à intrusão das raízes do eucalipto. Quanto ao efeito da intrusão e enterrio, os modelos autocompensantes apresentaram maior magnitude de variação da vazão em relação aos gotejadores não compensantes, no experimento conduzido. Nos modelos mais susceptíveis, observou-se maior nível de intrusão na condição de enraizamento, porém não foi observada diferença significativa no nível de intrusão das raízes em relação à profundidade de instalação dos gotejadores. As raízes do eucalipto se mostraram agressivas na penetração nos gotejadores, chegando a ocorrer o estrangulamento nos modelos Acqua-Traxx, Carbodrip, Hydrogol e Hydro Drip II. A penetração das raízes, também ocorreu no interior das linhas laterais, ampliando o efeito da intrusão na malha hidráulica da parcela de irrigação. Recomendam-se adequações em parâmetros da arquitetura ou no processo de montagem destes tubos gotejadores com a finalidade de minimizar as intrusões radiculares quando usados para a cultura do eucalipto.   UNITERMOS: gotejamento, variação de vazão, Eucalyptus grandis vs. Eucalyptus urophylla     MELO, R. F. DE, TEIXEIRA, M. B., GRUBER, Y. B. G., COELHO, R. D., ROOT INTRUSION OF THE EUCALYPTUS IN SUBSURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION   2 ABSTRACT   This experiment was performed aiming to evaluate the potential of eucalyptus root intrusion in irrigation rows using various emitter models when applied in subsurface irrigation; asbestos water tanks of 100L were utilized in protective environment (a greenhouse). The treatments consisted of 14 emitter models from different brands, seven non-pressure and seven pressure compensating types. The models were installed at two depths 0.15 m and 0.30 m (P15 and P30 respectively) and conducted in soil kept at field capacity. Five flow readings at intervals that ranged from 32 to 131 days were performed, totaling 235 days. The results showed striking differences in pressure and non-pressure compensating emitters behavior and within each type significant differences in susceptibility towards the intrusion of eucalyptus roots. Regarding the intrusion and burial effect, self-compensating models had higher magnitude of flow variations in relation to non-compensating emitter. In the most susceptible models there was a higher level of intrusion on rooting condition, but no significant difference was observed in the roots intrusion levels in relation to the emitter installation depth. Eucalyptus roots proved aggressive in penetrating the emitters, coming to strangling models Acqua-Traxx, Carbodrip, Hydrogol, and Hydro Drip II. Roots attack also occurred within the lateral lines extending the effect of intrusion to the network pressure plot irrigation. This study recommends adjustments on the architecture parameters or on the drip irrigation system assembling process in order to minimize root intrusion when used for eucalyptus cultivation.   KEYWORDS: drip irrigation, flow variation, Eucalyptus grandis vs. Eucalyptus urophylla

Abstract. System longevity is an important economic factor to minimize amortized investment costs for subsurface drip irrigation (SDI), especially when growing lower-value commodity crops such as field corn. Kansas State University established a research site in 1989 at a research center to study SDI. One research study area was used for continuous production of SDI corn for 27 seasons without dripline replacement. Normalized plot flowrates for 23 separate plots after 27 seasons were within ±5% of their first annually measured value. Hydraulic performance of the driplines and emitters was measured and in the laboratory for excavated dripline samples after the SDI system was decommissioned in the fall of 2015. There were similar results from both and laboratory tests of the used driplines, with excellent coefficients of variation (CV) of approximately 3%, lower quartile distribution uniformities (DUlq) of 96 to 97, and Christiansen uniformity coefficients (UC) of approximately 98. The performance results of the excavated driplines were as good as or better than the performance of some unused driplines that had been in storage since 1990. Long SDI system life appears possible in the U.S. Central Great Plains when the systems are properly designed, installed, and maintained. The long system life (27 seasons and 26.5 years) improves the economic competitiveness of SDI with alternative irrigation systems such as center-pivot sprinkler systems, which are currently the predominant irrigation system in the region. The SDI system was decommissioned at the end of the 2015 crop growing season due to leaks arising from breakdown in the plastic material, rather than due to any clogging concerns and subsequent lower application uniformity. Keywords: Distribution uniformity, Drip irrigation, Flow variation, Microirrigation, Subsurface drip irrigation.

In Florida, clustered pellitory is becoming a troublesome weed for citrus, especially from the winter through early summer. Inadequate management of this weed can result in its heavy infestation in tree rows and can interrupt the spray pattern of low-volume drip irrigation systems. This new 3-page publication of the UF/IFAS Horticultural Sciences Department will assist Florida citrus growers with proper identification of clustered pellitory and with adoption of adequate and timely strategies to manage this weed in their groves.

A field experiment was carried out in the field of the College of Agriculture / University of Wasit, located on longitude  45o   50o   33.5o   East and latitude 32o 29o 49.8o North, in Spring season of the agricultural season 2019, in order to estimate the water consumption of potato crop using SWRT technology and under the drip irrigation system. The experiment was designed according to Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications and four treatments that include of the SWRT treatment (the use of plastic films under the plant root area in an engineering style), and the treatment of vegetal fertilizer (using Petmos), organic fertilizer (sheep manure), and the control treatment . Potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum L.)  var. Burin was planted for spring season on 10/2/2019 at the soil depth of 5-10 cm. The highest reference water consumption for the potato crop during the season was calculated by Najeeb Kharufa, which was 663.03 mm. The highest actual water consumption for the potato crop during the season for the control treatment was 410.1 mm. The results showed increase in the values of the crop coefficient (Kc) in the stages of tubers formation and tubers filling stage as compared to the vegetative and ripening stages, ranged from 1.37-1.92 for the two stages of tubers formation and tubers filling. The SWRT treatment gave the highest water use efficiency during the season, was 3.46 kg m-3 .
