Introduction of micro-sprinkler systems to mango production into theuplands Northern Thailand
Abstract (English)
In order to asses water saving potentials of advanced irrigation methods in irrigated mango production in Northern Thailand, micro sprinklers have been introduced and compared into the area. Three micro sprinkler treatments were established on two commercial orchards: a. Full irrigation based on climate data, b. Partial Rootzone Drying, c. Farmer?s decision. These treatments were compared to the traditional irrigation methods. It was found that by the introduction of micro sprinklers, farmers were able to increase their water use efficiency, while the fruit size distribution was more favourable for export marketing.
