Modeling of Wick Irrigation System

The book "Modeling of Wick Irrigation System" offers a comprehensive examination of the hydraulic properties and performance of wick-based irrigation systems designed for agricultural use. Given the global water scarcity, the development of efficient irrigation methods is crucial. This specialized book highlights the advantages of drip irrigation systems, particularly for smallholder farmers and greenhouse applications. Through laboratory and greenhouse experiments, the movement of water and the dynamics of nutrients are simulated under root water withdrawal conditions in pot eggplant plants. The results of these studies provide valuable insights into the optimization of irrigation systems that are both cost-effective and efficient.
