Effects of fruit load intensity and irrigation level on fruit quality, water productivity and net profits of date palms
Agricultural Water Management(2020)
Abstract
•High fruit load increased yield and water productivity but reduced fruit quality in each irrigation treatment.•High irrigation levels did not lead to remarkable yield increase in each fruit load group.•Fruit quality and net profits were pronouncedly improved by elevated irrigation levels.•Trees under commercial fruit load intensity and high irrigation level treatment exhibited the highest net profits.
