The time schedule of micro-irrigation for a given irrigation interval can be expressed by an irrigation scheduling parameter which is de"ned as the ratio of the amount required and the amount applied. Di!erent values of the scheduling parameter can provide over-irrigation as well as de"cit irrigatio

The scarcity of fresh water in arid regions makes saline water a valuable alternative water source for irrigation. Saline water has an agricultural potential but it is necessary to develop special management procedures to obtain maximum yield and high product quality. Field experiments, which were
## Abstract In the North China Plain, grain yield, water use efficiency (WUE) and root water uptake of winter wheat (__Triticum aestivum__ L.) were investigated for five seasons, under different irrigation frequencies associated with limited water supply. Results showed that, with half of the norma
