Field study was conducted to evaluate the Performance of Hose-reel Machine for wheat crop growth was studied. The machine was operated at 55 psi to 67 psi pressure and field data was collected. Results of the study revealed that the cart gun covered a maximum wetted radius of 40.8 m at 62 psi. The application efficiency was maximum as 75.65% at the base pressure of 60 psi and the distribution uniformity as 73.85% at 62 psi. The wheat crop yield per unit area found to vary from 25% to 30% higher with the Hose-reel Sprinkler system.This book certainly enhance learning among researcher,...

Laboratory study was conducted to examine whether there is any beneficial effect of magnetically treated water on its quality and seedling emergence in sandculture. Water of various types like tap water, saline water, canal water and sewerage water was applied. Results revealed that the application of magnetized water promoted the germination rate of maize seeds, regardless of magnetic strength or flow rate. Seeds irrigated with magnetized water grew faster, higher and heavier than the untreated water and a significant effect appear with magnetized sewerage water. On the other hand, there was...
