Strawberries: Effects of Modifying Irrigation Methods for Transplant Establishment

In 2009, the Cal Poly Irrigation Training and Research Center began a multi-year analysis of the current irrigation practices of strawberry growers on the Central Coast of California. Specifically, the project examines the impacts of salinity on young strawberry transplants and the current practice of sprinkler use during the establishment of transplants for salinity control in areas where drip irrigation is available. The overall goal of the project is to study current practices and determine any conditions where growers can minimize or eliminate sprinkler use on strawberries, thereby conserving water, saving pumping costs, and reducing runoff. Results from the first year of the study have suggested that, contrary to previous belief, using reduced sprinkler or only drip irrigation results in higher yields than conventional methods

Grenzentesten

In deze dissertatie wordt gerapporteerd over onderzoek met grenzentests. Een grenzentest kan kortweg worden omschreven als een test voor prestatieniveau waarbij de proefpersoon tijdens de afname op een gestandaardiseerde wijze hulp krijgt bij de testtaak. Anders dan bij een traditionele test zou men aldus inzicht kunnen krijgen in de grenzen van iemands kunnen. ... Zie: Samenvattin
