Research article
A study was conducted involving (i) continuous trench (CT), (ii) CT with rainwater harvesting tank (RWHT) and basin irrigation (BI), and (iii) CT with RWHT and drip irrigation (DRI) to identify a suitable rainwater management strategy for citrus orchards in central India. CT with RWHT and DRI was found most suitable under which fruit production, net profit and eco-nomic water productivity were enhanced by 3.19, 3.98 and 2.30 times respectively, compared with rainfed treatment. The energy use efficiency improved by 87% with a 49% increase in sustainability yield index in CT with RWHT and DRI than the rainfed treatment. Not Available |
