Water Use of Young Citrus as a Function of Irrigation Management and Ground Cover Condition

This paper describes the effect of irrigation and ground cover management on crop evapotranspiration (ET) of young Valencia citrus trees grown on Arredondo fine sand. Six different treatment combinations were used: three levels of sod water potential and two levels of ground cover conddion. Resul...
