Abstract:

In agricultural production, the reaction of high hybrid seeds, tolerant to water stress and productive potential, to shortened irrigation, is very important. In this study in the greenhouse conditions, the shortened irrigation in the Çukurova region has determined changes in certain plant development parameters of high-performance hybrid eggs (P2088 and P1921) varieties. The trial examined three different levels of irrigation, I100 (washing in potency), I75 and I50 (75% and 50% of the water provided in the application of I100 respectively). As the water content of the soil increased, the plant length and the amount of dry material significantly increased. Different irrigation levels in the upper edge of the Egyptian plant had no statistically significant impact on all macro elements in the P2088 (except the potassium content) and P1921 eggs varieties. As the amount of irrigation decreases, the plant’s macro nutrient intake also decreases. The findings in the study are qualified to support the testing of the I75 application, which saves 25% water compared to the I100, in a longer cultivation period. Thus, the possibility of watering of more areas and the water use efficiency of the eggs plant can increase.
