O principal objetivo da irrigação é proporcionar às culturas a quantidade necessária de água para sua produção, sem excesso ou déficit, evitando assim desperdícios. O atual experimento foi conduzido no setor de Olericultura do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Triângulo Mineiro, campus de Uberaba, MG, nos meses de maio a novembro de 2008. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a produtividade da cultura do tomate, submetido a diferentes níveis de reposição de água de irrigação, determinando a lâmina ótima física, bem como o rendimento da cultura.  O delineamento experimental foi o DIC, com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos constaram de cinco níveis de reposição de água no solo (70%, 100%, 130%, 160% e 190% da lâmina para elevar o solo à capacidade de campo). As variáveis avaliadas foram produtividade, número de frutos, diâmetro do caule, altura da planta e eficiência do uso da água. A produtividade foi prejudicada pelo déficit e excesso de água. A lâmina ótima física foi de 581,4 mm com produtividade de 72,63 ton ha-1. UNITERMOS: manejo irrigação; produtividade tomate.     SANTANA, M.J. de; VIEIRA, T.A.; BARRETO, A.C. ; CRUZ, O.C.da TOMATO RESPONSE IRRIGATED WITH DIFFERENT LEVELS OF SOIL WATER REPLACEMENT     2 ABSTRACT   The irrigation main goal is to provide the crops the amount of water needed to produce without excess or deficit avoiding waste.

POTASSIUM AND IRRIGATION LEVELS IN THE PRODUCTION OF LETTUCE GROWN IN GREENHOUSES2 ABSTRACTLettuce grown in greenhouses has increased considerably in recent years due to superior control of environmental factors, coupled with the use of irrigation and fertilization practices that contribute to increased yield and improved product quality. Therefore, an experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of the Mineiro Triangle / IFTM, in Uberaba-MG, in order to evaluate the effect of application of potassium doses and irrigation water in the production of lettuce. The experimental design was randomized blocks in a 4x4 factorial design with three replications, totaling 48 experimental units. We studied four potassium doses (30, 60, 90 and 120 kg ha-1) and four irrigation levels (60, 80, 100 and 120% of crop evapotranspiration - ETc). 66 days after transplanting, the stem diameter, head circumference, the number of internal and external leaves, the total weight of the plant and the commercial weight of the head were determined. Water use efficiency (WUE) was also determined based on the commercial weight ratio of the head / Total irrigation depth applied. There was significant effect, among irrigation water levels, for all variables studied, with growing response to values close to 100% of ETC. The superior USA 1.8 g mm-1 was obtained by applying 60% of the ETC.Keywords: Lactuca sativa L., mineral nutrition, irrigation management.

Combined applications of mixed biomaterial amendments and polyacrylamide (MBAP) to maize in semiarid areas have the potential to improve soil physical properties such that improved crop performance may be obtained under deficient irrigation management. In this study, three MBAP applications were C0 (conventional N fertilization application) and C2 and C4 (MBAP applied at rates of 2 and 4 t ha−1, respectively); three irrigation levels were W3 (nearly full irrigation, 85%–100% of field capacity), W2 (light deficit irrigation, 65%–75% of field capacity), and W1 (medium deficit irrigation, 55%–65% of field capacity). Under the same irrigation level, the MBAP significantly decreased soil bulk densities and increased soil hydraulic conductivities and soil water contents. The effects of irrigation levels on soil bulk densities and soil saturated hydraulic conductivities were not significant. Consequently, MBAP improved soil conditions for maize growth and increased grain and biomass yields, especially at the two deficit irrigation levels. Compared with that of C0, grain yields for C2 and C4 were increased by 52.8% and 39.3% under W2, and by 23.5% and 13.7% under W1, respectively. The MBAP and irrigation had significant interaction effects on evapotranspiration during sowing to jointing and on plant heights at 32 d after sowing. The incorporation of MBAP (2 t ha−1) and chemical fertilizer (111.8 kg N ha−1) resulted in the greatest yields under light deficit irrigation and seemed the best approach to improve soil physical properties and sustain maize productivity using limited water resources in dryland regions.

Fertigation was found technically and economically feasible for tomato cultivation in winter as well as in summer. An experiment was conducted with summer tomato (BARI Hybrid Tomato–4) having 2 drip irrigation levels with different levels of NPK and micronutrient (B, Zn, and Mg) during kharif-1 seasons of 2007 and 2008. The fertilizer levels were N100 P55 K120 kg/ha, N100 P55 K120 B1 Zn4 Mg4 kg/ha, N100 P70 K140 kg/ha and N100 P70 K140 B2 Zn6 Mg8 kg/ha and the irrigation levels were drip irrigation at 2 days interval and drip irrigation at 3 days interval. The highest marketable yield of summer tomato (35.90 t/ha and 27.12 t/ha) were obtained from the fertigation treatment with fertilizer doses of N100 P55 K120 B1 Zn4 Mg4 kg/ha irrigated at 2 days interval in 2007 and 2008. The cull yield was also the lowest (2.53 t/ha and 1.15 t/ha) in this treatment in both the years. The lowest tomato yield (20.50 t/ha and 18.29 t/ha) were obtained from the treatment with fertilizer doses N100 P70 K140 kg/ha irrigated at 2 days interval where no micronutrients were used. Fruit quality parameters like TSS, Vitamin-C and ?-carotene were also the highest for the best yielder. So, use of micronutrients with NPK showed a significant effect on quality fruits as well as yield of summer tomato. The best yielder treatment received 261.0 mm of seasonal water including an effective rainfall of 60.5 mm during the crop seasons. The highest BCR (4.41) was also found in the same treatment.

The effects of soil water spatial variability previous to irrigation and of the field capacity on the estimation of irrigation water depth are evaluated. The experiment consisted of a common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) crop established on a Kandiudalfic Eutrudox of Piracicaba, SP, Brazil, irrigated by central pivot, in which soil water contents were evaluated with a depth neutron gauge, in a grid of 20x4 points with lag of 0.5 m. In a given situation, the 80 calculated irrigation water depths presented a coefficient of variation of 29.3%, with an average water value of 18 mm, maximum of 41mm and minimum of 9 mm. It is concluded that the only practical way of irrigation is the use of an average water depth, due to the inherent variability of the soil, and that the search for better field capacity values does not imply in better water depth estimates.

The current study intended to determine the optimum water depth, yield and evapotranspiration (ETc) for bean cultivars. The experiment was conducted in the Campus of Unit I of the Triângulo Mineiro Federal Education and Technology Institute in Uberaba, MG, in a completely randomized design with three replications. The treatments consisted of four water-replacing levels in the soil (70, 100, 130 and 160% of the crop evapotranspiration) and four bean cultivars (Pérola, BRSMG Madrepérola, BRSMG Majestoso and IAC Alvorada). The average values of ETc obtained for soil water balance for the cultivars Pérola, BRSMG Madrepérola, BRSMG Majestoso and IAC Alvorada were, respectively, of 5.25 mm day-1, 4.59 mm day-1, 4.54 mm day-1 and 4.77 mm day-1. The water depths which provided the highest yields were for the cultivars Pérola, BRSMG Madrepérola, BRSMG Majestoso and IAC Alvorada of 451.61 mm, 454.41 mm, 504.71 mm and 344.30 mm, respectively. The maximum yields found were 4597.87 kg ha-1 (Pérola), 4546.27 kg ha-1 (BRSMG Madrepérola), 4253.39 kg ha-1 (BRSMG Majestoso) and 3958.50kg ha-1 (IAC Alvorada).

Replacement studies were conducted under greenhouse conditions to determine if available soil water influences the competitive interaction between soybean and Florida beggarweed. Stomatal conductance and leaf water potential were determined for both species under different levels of available soil water to identify possible mechanisms involved in changes in the relative competitiveness induced by the water deficits. Soybean leaf area and aboveground biomass were greater than for Florida beggarweed under optimum water, but equal to or less than Florida beggarweed with water stress. Soybean was more competitive than Florida beggarweed when there was adequate soil water but less competitive than Florida beggarweed under water stress. Stomatal conductance was higher for soybean with optimum soil water (at high leaf water potentials) but equal to Florida beggarweed as soil water became limiting (low leaf water potentials). These data indicated that water stress differentially affected soybean and Florida beggarweed.
