The experimental design was a split plot with four replications. Laterals were set every second crop row (1 m apart), with emitters spaced 1 m apart. In the case of SDI, laterals were buried 0.45 m under the ground. Soil moisture measurements were taken up to 75 cm depth, using the TDR method. The soil water content and the yield characteristics of each treatment were recorded. Irrigation method showed to affect crop performance significantly while water application level was less critical. The experimental results indicated that the subsurface drip irrigation leaded to a greater yield and higher sugar content making significant water saving compared to surface drip irrigation.</p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>29</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>85</first_page><last_page>91</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">217</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000217</doi><timestamp>1713482968</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/217</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
