摘要

This study investigated the effects of different drip irrigation management techniques on beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) productivity and quality in a controlled greenhouse environment. Climate-based methods (weather station, evaporation pan), soil-based methods (capacitive moisture sensors, tensiometry), and a commercial method (FieldNET by Lindsay) were compared. The evaluation considered applied water volume, yield, water use efficiency, root diameter, and dry mass of root and shoot. Soil-based methods, particularly the SoilWatch sensor, resulted in the highest productivity (88 tons ha− 1), representing a 62% increase compared to the lowest yield, and quality (30.2 mm root diameter), a 19% improvement. However, tensiometry demonstrated superior water use efficiency (45.2 kg m− 3), with the lowest applied water volume (132 mm), reflecting a 37% reduction in applied water compared to the highest. Climate-based methods showed potential but required precise parameter calibration. The commercial method, while productive, exhibited lower water use efficiency with its default settings. The study underscores the importance of integrating real-time soil moisture monitoring for optimal irrigation management in beetroot cultivation, emphasizing the need to tailor strategies based on specific crop and environmental conditions.
