As a result, efforts must be made to improve irrigation technologies, irrigation management techniques, and the usage of water-saving materials. As a result, the goal of this research is to justify the use of water in irrigating \"Le-Conte\" pear plants under desert soil conditions while minimizing the negative influence on production and fruit quality. The partial root drying (PRD) technique, as well as anti-transpiration products and plastic mulch, are used to accomplish this aim. During the study seasons, trees were irrigated with PRD technology at levels of 75 or 50 % of the irrigation requirement (IR) without any additives, or with kaolin or green miracle as anti-transpiration, or by covering the soil surface with black polyethylene, as opposed to irrigation with 100 % of the IR by the traditional way. The results showed that under the drip irrigation system, water can be conservation by reducing irrigation amounts by 25% of the optimal rate using PRD technique, especially when combined with the use of mulching or the use of anti-transpiration materials, it gave superior or similar results to the results achieved with the use of full irrigating rate in the normal way without any additional treatments for studied traits such as total leaf macro nutrient content, total chlorophyll content, carbohydrates, and IAA and GA3 content which achieved the highest yield with the best fruit characteristics in terms of fruit weight and a good percentage of fruits with red cheek.","PeriodicalId":482260,"journal":{"name":"Scientific Journal of Agricultural Sciences","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135249522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, Extension Educational Platforms(EEPs) represent an appropriate option for providing Small Vegetable Growers (SVGs), with needed and demanded EASs related to effective production and marketing of the prevailing crops. In addition to SVGs, grouped in Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) involve all relevant stakeholders, including input suppliers, governmental extension workers, and private sector companies. The main objective of this study was to assess SVGs ' satisfaction about the EASs provided by 4 PPPs in the area of the production and marketing of some vegetable crops, including onion, green beans, garlic and cucumber. Study was conducted in Beni Suef Governorate, the Nile Valley of Egypt. A sample of 111 SVGs, involved, as members, in 4 NGOs, were personally interviewed, by using a questionnaire designed for data collection. Medium and high degrees of satisfaction were reported by SVGs concerning: timely provision of EASs, secured marketing of the products, better and improved tools of vegetable production and marketing, better relationships among SVGs and governmental workers of agricultural directorates, well training of agricultural workers in post-harvest marketing practices, well training of SVGs on how to produce vegetables according to specifications accepted by consumers in local, regional and international markets.","PeriodicalId":482260,"journal":{"name":"Scientific Journal of Agricultural Sciences","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135690693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
