Conteúdo: | The first two chapters are somewhat general in nature and include a consideration of the distribution and variability of precipitation, soil moisture reservoir and moisture recharge, the U.S. water budget, and water use planning. The next seven chapters deal largely with basic information regarding plant-water and soil-plant-water relationships, including a detailed consideration of factors affecting evapotranspiration, plant response to water stress, root environment, moisture movement in soils, nutrient and water adsorption by plants and the interactions of water supply, soil fertility, and crop yields. In chapters 10, 11, and 12 the authors discuss underlying principles and management practices involved in water conservation and in increasing water use efficieny through improved soil and crop management practices. Among the water conservation measures discussed are those for controlling runoff, increasing infiltration, and reducing irrigation water losses. Emphasis is give to the large potentials for increasing water use efficiency through practices that increase crop yields per acre, such as the use of fertilizers, better crop varieties, and improved cultural practices. In chapter 13 the authors discuss the importance of plant environment research and present in detail an example of the commercial utilization of climatological and soil moisture information in promoting more efficient crop production.
