Titre :	Cotton production in Northern states of Nigeria in relation of water availability and crop water use
Type de document :	texte imprimé
Auteurs :	Kowal, J. M. ; Faulkmer, R. C.
Année de publication :	1975
ISBN/ISSN/EAN :	CI-10536
Note générale :	Cotton growing and the main zones of production in Nigeria are described and previous work on crop water rela is reviwed. Water availability and water use by cotton arev presented in the form of a water budget, and as the continuous function ET/EO during the growing season, using data obtained from a weighing hysimeter at samaru, a typical site in a major cotton growing zone. In addition, observations on the height of the water table, measurements of soil water status made with a neutron probe, and data on crop development (in terms of leaf area index and flowering) are considered. Cotton production is discussed in relation to some phases, in particulier the effects of sawing date and length of the rainy season on the duration of the second phase in the various productions zones.
