This document discusses olive irrigation, including the physiological effects of water stress on olive trees and how irrigation can benefit olive production. Some key points:
- Irrigation increases canopy growth, root development, and early onset of production in young olive trees.
- Irrigation increases fruit production in adult trees by over 100% compared to unirrigated trees, with higher increases at lower planting densities.
- Olive trees are drought resistant but need at least 600-700mm of water per year for regular growth and production. Deficit irrigation can be used to influence fruit and oil yield/quality.
- The type of irrigation system used (furrow, drip, sprinkler) depends on soil type and other factors
The loss of water from aerial parts of plants in the form of vapor is known as transpiration.
The loose arrangement of the living thin walled mesophyll cells, which results in an abundance of inter cellular space provides an ideal condition for the vaporation of water from internal leaf surface.
Part of the epidermal surface of the leaf is made up of a great number of microscopic pores called stomata.
This document discusses various types of environmental stresses that can affect plant growth including drought, high or low temperatures, excessive soil salinity, and inadequate minerals in the soil. It describes different mechanisms by which plants can adapt to or tolerate drought conditions, such as escaping drought by having a short lifecycle, avoiding stress through stomatal regulation and increased photosynthetic efficiency, and tolerating stress through enhanced water conservation and storage abilities. The document focuses on defining and classifying different types of drought, as well as adaptation strategies employed by crops to survive in drought environments.
Osmoregulation, and adaptation in plants against abiotic factors plant stres...Raheel Hayat Rahee
Osmoregulation allows organisms to maintain homeostasis by regulating water and electrolyte balance. It works through osmosis, where water moves across semipermeable membranes to areas of higher solute concentration. Organisms excrete excess water and solutes. Plants regulate osmoregulation through structures like stomata and use vacuoles and specialized adaptations depending on their habitat. Abiotic stress like drought, salinity, temperature extremes, and heavy metals can damage plants, but plants have developed tolerance mechanisms like avoidance, escape, and acclimation to survive environmental stresses.
On farm innovations that increase production irrigated macadamia production...MacadamiaSociety
Macadamia trees grow best at temperatures between 20-25°C, while temperatures below -1°C can harm young trees and frosts of -6°C can kill them. Prolonged exposure over 35°C also causes stress. Average annual rainfall should be at least 1200mm, but irrigation is needed if rainfall is lower. Irrigation in Australia increased macadamia yields from 10.54kg to 20.79kg per tree, a 97% increase. Irrigation in South Africa increases yields from 2t/ha without irrigation to 3-5t/ha with irrigation.

Principles of irrigation by Dr Thomas Abraham_Course Code_Chapters 1 to 5__26...Ambo University (Ethiopia)
Irrigation involves applying water to crops to supplement rainfall and meet crop water needs. The key objectives of irrigation are to ensure sufficient soil moisture for plant growth, provide drought protection for crops, and create a favorable environment for plants. Irrigation maximizes crop yields and land productivity, ensuring food security and promoting regional economic development through agriculture and related industries.

Ways to address moisture stress under dryland conditionsmuskanporwal6
Water has been inherently a scarce resource in the semi arid tropics. Agriculture has been the major user of this constantly limiting resource. The basic and foremost constraint of drylands is the uneven distribution of rains. Erratic rainfall results in widely fluctuating production, leading to production deficit and causing land degradation through soil erosion and reduced groundwater recharge. And the effect being crop failures. There are various approaches to deal with the moisture stress in drylands. Water harvesting, agronomic approaches for in-situ moisture conservation, conservation agriculture and measures for efficient utilization of the stored moisture through genetic approaches, selection of suitable crops and varieties and different planting methods etc.Thus with the collaboration with appropriate government policies and institutional support and development of various drought resistance varieties the and associated measures the moisture stress in dryland areas can be minimized effectively and efficiently.
Proper irrigation scheduling determines when and how much to irrigate crops. It is important for efficient water use and maximizing yields. Methods for determining when to irrigate include soil moisture indicators like tensiometers, plant indicators like wilting, and meteorological data. The amount of irrigation applied should bring the soil moisture in the effective root zone to field capacity, accounting for expected rainfall and crop water needs.

Soil is important as it provides nutrients for plant growth, acts as a habitat for many organisms, and stores water for plants. Soil quality depends on factors like its nutrient content, texture, and ability to retain water. Threats to soil include erosion from overgrazing, poor farming practices, and damage from human activities, which can lead to soil degradation and loss of fertile land. Conservation methods aim to protect soil quality and prevent erosion, such as contour plowing, terracing, no-till farming, crop rotation, use of windbreaks, and controlling water runoff. The type of soil that forms is influenced by properties of the parent rock material and climatic factors like temperature and precipitation.
Water use effeciency intrinsic water use effeciency as a drought resistant traitZuby Gohar Ansari
This document discusses water use efficiency (WUE), an important trait for developing drought-resistant crops. It defines WUE as the amount of dry matter or yield produced per unit of water used. Higher WUE is significant for crop productivity under water-limited conditions. WUE is influenced by both environmental factors like vapor pressure deficit, light, temperature, and CO2 concentration as well as plant factors like root systems, leaf movements, and nutrient availability. Improving WUE through breeding and management techniques like irrigation method, mulching, and weed control can help increase crop yields in drought conditions.
This document discusses rules for estimating tree irrigation demand and surviving drought. It introduces four factors to consider: 1) transpiration rate, 2) rooting depth, 3) desiccation tolerance, and 4) tree size.

2. Learning Objectives
• Understanding the physiological response of olive trees to
water stress
• Determining how much water is needed for irrigation
• Managing deficit irrigation
• Determining what type of irrigation (furrow, drip irrigation)
is ideal
• Understanding water quality (salinity)
3. Transpiration: leaf cooling and water
uptake
Photosynthesis: sugar production
for vegetative and fruit growth
Photosynthesis-transpiration Compromise
4. Limitations in photosynthetic activity become clear
during water stress (time of the day when the traspiration
rate is very high). In such conditions, the tree needs to
close the stomata to avoid excessive water loss, but at
the same time the photosysnthetic rate decreases
severely.
Photosynthesis and transpiration rates are affected by
several factors: soil moisture, CO2, light radiation, air
temperature, humidity, wind speed, age of the leaf, etc.
5. W.U.E.
Water Use Efficiency = amount of assimilated C
per unit of transpired water
W.U.E. = A / T
Transpiration: leaf
cooling and water
uptake
Photosyntesis: sugar
production for vegetative
and fruit growth
6. Very drought resistant
The olive is able to survive with only 200mm per year of
rainfall (but needs at least 600-700mm per year to ensure
regular fruit and vegetative shoot growth)
Evergreen xerophitic species
(well-adapted to Mediterranean climate conditions)
Moving southward, olive cultivation and production
increases with rising average temperatures until drought
becomes the main limiting factor
7. Water stress resistance strategy
“Avoidant” species “Tolerant” species
Carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.)
Grape (Vitis vinifera L.)
Olive (Olea europaea L.)
Physiological and growing changes
that allow to optimize available
resources without further request.
Elimination of efficient transpirating
surfaces (or drying shoot in carob) if
optimum conditions are not
promptly restored.
Use all the available resources
without modifying physiological
mechanisms.
Elimination of old and unefficient
leaves only when water stress is
strong and prolongued.
8. Morpho-anatomical characteristics and physiological
strategies for drought stress resistance in the olive
1. Roots
Variable transmigration and depth depending on available water in the soil
Usually the root system is completely contained within 0.6-0.8m depth (newly
formed roots from the crown at 0.15-0.2m depth are possible in infrequent
rainfall conditions)
The olive is very sensitive to a lack of oxygen in the soil: root cortical
cells rapidly die because of excessive and irrecoverable membrane
deterioration with the outcome being more superficial roots in
asphyctical soils
High rehydration and restoration of hydraulic conductivity (root ability) after
strong drought stress
9. Morpho-anatomical characteristics and physiological
strategies for drought stress resistance in olive
2. Trunk
The single elements of olive xilem are tighter and longer than other
deciduous tree species (with porous-diffused xilem) typical of the
mediterranean area (Ceratonia siliqua L., Laurus nobilis L., Quercus ilex
L., Quercus pubescens Willd., Quercus suber L.)
Reduction of cavitation problems
Salleo and Nardini (1999) reports that in olive only the 5% of xilematic
vases stop trasport flux because of embolism in the lumen, when
LWP is near to – 3,5 MPa
10. Olive
Apricot
Kiwi
Grape
Stomaic conductivity (gs) plotted on leaf water potential (ψw) measured in potted and field olive, apricot, kiwi and vine
plants (modified from Cifre et al., 2005; Schultz, 2003 and from Gucci, 2003).
In olives, when LWP
decreases, stomatal
closure is less rapid than
in apricots, kiwis and
grapes.
LWP reduction is mainly
due to water loss in
tissues
Stoma are partially open
also when hydrical
potential is very low,
allowing an appreciable
leaf photosynthetic rate.
High Water Use
Efficiency
Olive: 315g water for 1g fruit dry matter
Citrus: 400g water for 1g fruit dry matter
Prunus: 560g water for 1g fruit dry matter
11. Drought Stress
• Delay onset of production in young olive trees
• Reduce total tree growth and vegetative shoot elongation
• Increase alternate bearing
• Reduce leaf photosynthetic rate
• Increase fruits drop
• Reduce final fruit number and dimension (pulp)
• Reduce final oil amount per fruit and per plant
• Anticipate fruit ripening
• Oil produced is more pungent and bitter

15. Irrigation of Adult and Productive Trees
Fruit production increase > 100% compared to unirrigated olive orchards
(Goldhamer et al., 1994; Pastor et al., 1998; Patumi et al., 1999)
In Andalucia: increase included between 50% and 100% with respect to
planting density (lower increase for 300pt / ha and higher for 100pt / ha)
In south Italy, oil production increase higher than 40% in three cultivars
(Dettori and Russo, 1993)
In Greece: 30% and 36% increase, respectively, in olive and oil production in
irrigated trees compared to unirrigated in cultivar Koroneiki (Michelakis,
2002)
In central Italy (Tuscany), production increase of about 20% in 2001, but no
effects in 2002 characterized by aboundant rainfall (Gucci, 2002)
The more arid the climatic conditions are, the more positive are the
effects of irrigation!
16. Furrow
A deep, narrow furrow on a sandy soil
A wide, shallow furrow on a clay soil
Zig zag
18. To obtain a uniform water distribution along the furrow
length, it is very important to have a uniform slope and a
large enough stream size so that water advances rapidly
down the furrow

28. When to Irrigate
• Winter (rest phase)
• Vegetative growth
• Flowering (key process of fruit set)
• Fruit development (double sigmoid)
• Ripening (fruit quality)
• Post harvest (before the rest)
29. When to Irrigate
(Tentative Guideline)
• Winter (rest phase)
– Plant survival (2.5 months 10% )
• Vegetative growth
– Bud break, flower formation, new vegetative cycle (2 months
30%)
• Flowering (bloom and fruit set 2 weeks 7%)
• Fruit development (double sigmoid)
– 1 stage 6 weeks 20%
– 2 stage 2 weeks 3%
– 3 phase 2 months 20%
• Ripening (fruit quality) 1 month 7%
• Post harvest (flower induction and storage) 2 months 6%
