Control (T0) plants were drip irrigated in order to maintain soil water content at levels slightly above soil field capacity (102.3% of soil field capacity) and T1 plants were drip irrigated for 33 days in order to maintain the soil water content at around 80% of soil field capacity. The results indicated persimmon plants confront a mild water stress situation by gradually developing stomata control (stress avoidance mechanism) and exhibiting some xeromorphic characteristic such as high leaf relative apoplastic water content, which could contribute to the retention of water at low leaf water potentials. In addition, sap flow measurements made by the heat-pulse technique were seen to be the most suitable method for estimating persimmon water status, because it provided the highest signal intensity (actual value/reference value):noise (coefficient of variation) ratio in almost all intervals of time considered and provides continuous and automated registers of the persimmon water status in real time."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.agwat.2019.03.008"],["dc.identifier.issn","0378-3774"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/71576"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Department für Nutzpflanzenwissenschaften"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Agrarwissenschaften"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Pflanzenbau"],["dc.title","Leaf water relations in Diospyros kaki during a mild water deficit exposure"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Agriculture, the largest water-using sector, has a major role in addressing water scarcity and food security challenges. While there has been quite some attention to water management solutions like soil mulching and improved irrigation, less attention has been paid to adapting the cropping pattern to save water. Here, we investigate how a change in which crops are grown where and when can influence the green and blue water footprint (WF) of crop production, save blue water, reduce blue water scarcity and increase both food and cash crop production, using FAO’s AquaCrop model. The performance of two potential solutions, first a strategy of mulching plus drip irrigation, and second a strategy with changing the cropping pattern in addition to mulching and drip irrigation, were compared in one of the most water-stressed catchments in the world, the Upper Litani Basin in Lebanon. Our results show a substantial potential for more efficient use of green water resources for food production while saving scarce blue water resources. Whereas mulching and drip irrigation together decrease the blue WF in the basin by 4.5%, changing the cropping pattern as well can decrease it by 20.3%. Food and cash production could increase by 3% and 50% by changing the cropping pattern, compared to 1.5% and 2.1% by mulching and drip irrigation. Changing the cropping pattern could thus significantly reduce water scarcity and enlarge food and cash production in the basin."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.jhydrol.2020.125086"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/80906"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-399"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-1694"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Department für Nutzpflanzenwissenschaften"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Agrarwissenschaften"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Pflanzenbau"],["dc.title","Reduce blue water scarcity and increase nutritional and economic water productivity through changing the cropping pattern in a catchment"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

This research assesses the possible alleviation of water scarcity by reducing the water footprint in crop production through the application of soil mulching and drip irrigation. The study is the first to do so at catchment scale, taking into account various crops, multi-cropping, cropping patterns, and spatial differences in climate, soil, and field management factors, using field survey and local data. The AquaCrop-OS model and the global water footprint assessment (WFA) standard were used to assess the green and blue water footprint (WF) of ten major crops in the Upper Litani Basin (ULB) in Lebanon. The blue water saving and blue water scarcity reduction under these two alternative practices were compared to the current situation. The results show that the WF of crop production is more sensitive to climate than soil type. The annual blue WF of summer crops was largest when water availability was lowest. Mulching reduced the blue WF by 3.6% and mulching combined with drip irrigation reduced it by 4.7%. The blue water saving from mulching was estimated about 6.3 million m3/y and from mulching combined with drip irrigation about 8.3 million m3/y. This is substantial but by far not sufficient to reduce the overall blue WF in summer to a sustainable level at catchment scale."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.scitotenv.2018.10.311"],["dc.identifier.issn","0048-9697"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/72953"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Department für Nutzpflanzenwissenschaften"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Agrarwissenschaften"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Abteilung Pflanzenbau"],["dc.title","Water scarcity alleviation through water footprint reduction in agriculture: The effect of soil mulching and drip irrigation"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
