توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب :
با تشدید فشار جهانی بر منابع آب، ضروری است که دانشمندان نقشی را که آب در توسعه محصولات کشاورزی ایفا می کند و اینکه چگونه می توان از چنین دانشی برای بهبود بهره وری آب استفاده کرد، درک کنند. این کتاب با پیوند فیزیولوژی، زراعت و روشهای آبیاری، بر یازده محصول کلیدی میوه تمرکز دارد که میلیونها نفر در مناطق گرمسیری و نیمه گرمسیری برای امرار معاش خود (آووکادو، بادام هندی، گونههای مرکبات، نخل خرما، لیچی، ماکادمیا، انبه، زیتون) به آنها وابسته هستند. پاپایا، میوه شور و آناناس). هر فصل تحقیقات بینالمللی آبیاری را روی یک محصول میوه مرور میکند، فرصتهایی را برای بهبود اثربخشی تخصیص آب شناسایی میکند و خوانندگان را تشویق میکند تا دانش علمی را با کاربردهای عملی مرتبط کنند. این منبع به وضوح نوشته شده و به خوبی نشان داده شده است، این منبع ایده آلی برای مهندسان، کشاورزان و محققانی است که در مورد چگونگی بهبود بهره وری کشاورزی آبی، در زمینه تغییرات اقلیمی، و نیاز به کشاورزان برای نشان دادن شیوه های آبیاری خوب نگران هستند.

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :
As global pressure on water resources intensifies, it is essential that scientists understand the role that water plays in the development of crops and how such knowledge can be applied to improve water productivity. Linking crop physiology, agronomy and irrigation practices, this book focuses on eleven key fruit crops upon which millions of people in the tropics and subtropics depend for their livelihoods (avocado, cashew, Citrus spp., date palm, lychee, macadamia, mango, olive, papaya, passion fruit and pineapple). Each chapter reviews international irrigation research on an individual fruit crop, identifying opportunities for improving the effectiveness of water allocation and encouraging readers to link scientific knowledge with practical applications. Clearly written and well illustrated, this is an ideal resource for engineers, agronomists and researchers concerned with how the productivity of irrigated agriculture can be improved, in the context of climate change, and the need for growers to demonstrate good irrigation practices
