A Preliminary Study on the Effect of Deficit Irrigation Application on the Yield and Some Yield Characteristics of Burnet (Poterium sanguisorba) in Early Growth Stage
Journal Title: ISPEC Journal of Agricultural Sciences - Year 2021, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the effect of different irrigation doses on the forage yield and some yield parameters of burnet (Poterium sanguisorba) (Bünyan 80 genotype). The experiment was carried out at Ege University, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Field Crops, during the winter growth seasons of 2019 as a pot experiment grown under indoor. According to the randomized plot design with four replications, five different irrigation doses (Field capacity (FC) %20-40-60-80-100) were determined. Some parameters were evaluated in the study such as plant height, hay yield, root dry weight, crude protein content and in the plant; concentrations of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg). The effects of irrigation doses were significant on all characteristics tested as 1% statistically significant in the experiment. The highest hay yield was obtained by irrigation of FC-80%; the lowest yield was obtained by irrigation of FC-20%. As water scarcity increased, plant nutrients and crude protein concentration decreased.
