Regulated Deficit Irrigation during Vegetative Growth Enhances Crop Water Productivity in Chickpea (<i>Cicer arietinum</i> L.)

Regulated Deficit Irrigation during Vegetative Growth Enhances Crop Water Productivity in Chickpea (<i>Cicer arietinum</i> L.)

To optimize irrigation, agronomists need to modulate crop water productivity (CWP) throughout phenology. We compared regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) and sustained deficit irrigation (SDI) in chickpea (<i>Cicer arietinum</i> L. var. Blanoro), expecting RDI during vegetative growth (VG)...
