The effect of irrigation on the economic and nutritional characteristics of selected vegetables
Original language description
In the Faculty of Horticulture Lednice, Mendel University in Brno, were founded in 2008 - 2011 two field trials with growing bush tomato, pepper, spring lettuce and leek at two levels of irrigation: the optimal set to (min) 65 % exploitable water soil capacity and a stress level set to 45 % of capacity. It was found that the amount of water delivered to plants at least influenced the yield of tomatoes. Reduced irrigation (by 44 %) in 2009 led to the yield reduction of only 5.5 %. In tomato was found thelowest water consumption per kg of market biomass formation (26-68 L/kg). In stress irrigation treatment in pepper in 2011 was found a significant reduction in market yield (27 %) and the first grade yield. Significant water savings in lettuce was confirmed by non-woven canopy cover. In such case, total consumption of water during lettuce vegetation was only 105 mm. In trials with leek in 2011 - when compared to the higher temperatures of 2010 - was found also a higher consumption of ir
