Four water management treatments were applied: (1) control no irrigation (2) light frequent irrigation (3) medium infrequent irrigation and (4) light infrequent irrigation. Periodic water depletion rates were 10 to 200 higher in the irrigated plots compared to non-irrigated plots. Average corn grain yields were 2112 7723 7084 and 7071 kg/ha for treatments (1) -2 (3) and (4) respectively. The yields from irrigated treatments were significantly higher than from the non-irrigated treatment at 1 probability level. Irrigation-use efficiencies based on corn grain yields were 220 205 and 223 kg/hr/cm for each of the treatments 2 3 and 4

Abstract

Four water management treatments were applied: (1) control no irrigation (2) light frequent irrigation (3) medium infrequent irrigation and (4) light infrequent irrigation. Periodic water depletion rates were 10 to 200 higher in the irrigated plots compared to non-irrigated plots. Average corn grain yields were 2112 7723 7084 and 7071 kg/ha for treatments (1) -2 (3) and (4) respectively. The yields from irrigated treatments were significantly higher than from the non-irrigated treatment at 1 probability level. Irrigation-use efficiencies based on corn grain yields were 220 205 and 223 kg/hr/cm for each of the treatments 2 3 and 4
