Abstract

The total water used was the highest in case of drip irrigation under 1.4 ET and lowest under 0.6 ET. Among the surface irrigation schedules, highest water was used under the irrigation level of 1.2 ET. The irrigation scheduled at 1.2 ET level was more suitable over that of surface irrigation under salinity.
