  Author(s): Tamirneh Kifle*
  
  Water resources were subjected to ever-increasing supply constraints due to extensive agricultural water demand for irrigated lands. Therefore, it is important to develop water-water-saving irrigation strategies to solve the problem. This experiment was conducted for three years to evaluate the effect of furrow irrigation systems on onion yield and water use efficiency at Humbo Woreda. The experiment had six treatments [Appling 100% crop water requirement with Alternate, 100% crop water requirement with Conventional, 75% crop water requirement with Alternate, 75% crop water requirement with Conventional, 50% crop water requirement with Alternate, and 50% crop water requirement with Conventional furrow irrigation] that were arranged in randomized complete block design with three replications. Yield and yield component data were collected and analyzed using Stati.. Read More»
