- Abstract:
- ... To explore management practices that increase irrigation water productivity (IWP) in U.S. Southern High Plains (SHP) cotton production, the CROPGRO-Cotton crop simulation model was used to evaluate the yield, IWP, and profit effects of irrigation amount and timing. Using 2005–2019 weather input data from 21 SHP weather stations, lint yields were simulated for each of the 315 station-years under un ...

- Abstract:
- ... Within the US Southern High Plains, it is known that the Ogallala Aquifer (OA) has been over pumped since large-scale agriculture began making use of the water in the 1950s. One option to address the decline is to find new water sources. The last 10–15 years have seen an increase in drilling large capacity, deeper wells in the co-located Dockum Aquifer in the Texas Panhandle. This lower aquifer is ...

A scheme for simulating, quantifying, and managing climate-related risk was used to identify best management practices for U.S. Southern High Plains (SHP) rainfed agriculture under current climate conditions. The method is based on the use of a Regional Frequency Analysis approach and crop models to convert large samples of recent growing season weather outcomes into dense cotton and sorghum yield ...

The impact of the harvesting method, as well as the ginning method (saw or high-speed roller ginning), on textile quality was studied over three years of cotton production in the Southern High Plains. The Southern High Plains region is the largest cotton production area of the USA. The Southern High Plains and the Texas Gulf Coast are the only areas of the USA where brush-roll stripper harvesting ...

Although deficit irrigation (DI) may have the potential to optimize crop yields in water limited environments, the success of such strategies may depend on the ability to manage variability in profile stored soil water during periods of drought. Understanding variability in stored soil water and crop rooting depth is an important component of successfully managing a deficit irrigation strategy. Tr ...

SDI laterals spaced 1.02 m versus 2.03 m apart increased cotton yield by 5% and water use efficiency by 7%. In the Texas High Plains (THP), water table declines in the Ogallala Aquifer and the high evaporative environment have helped motivate the transition from surface and center pivot i ...

Helminth infracommunities were species poor, averaging 1.7 (range 1–4) species. Six species occurred within the component community of which one (Oxyspirura petrowi) is known to be pathogenic to quai ...

Lower water requirements and ability to tolerate abiotic stresses make safflower a potential alternative crop for the Southern High Plains (SHP). However, information on water extraction patterns of safflower and its role in oil yield formation under center ...

Greater than 80% of the irrigated area in the Southern High Plains is served by center-pivot irrigation, but the area served by subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) is increasing due to several factors including declining well yields and improved yields and crop water productivity (CWP), particularly for cotton. Not as well established is the degree to which the reduced soil water evaporation (E) in S ...
