Title: Effect of low sprinkling distribution uniformity on yield of wheat using set sprinklers
Abstract: Uniformity of soil moisture under sprinkler irrigation is important for plant quality; however, sprinkler systems are typically gauged by the uniformity of application above the crop canopy as stated by Dukes etal. (2006). The uniformity with which an irrigation system applies water has an effect on the efficiency of the system. The uniformity of an irrigation system needs to be high to ensure that the majority of the crop receives an adequate amount of water. This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of Low sprinkling distribution uniformity on the yield of Wheat. This study revealed that low distribution uniformity will result in low yield. It also reveals that to maximize the yield of wheat the depth of irrigation should be doubled when irrigating using sprinkler irrigation on daily basis.
