PEREZ-LEIRA, Ramón  and  DOMINGUEZ-GUTIERREZ, Jacqueline. Irrigation Regime for Crops in Manabí, Ecuador: Proposal for Five Permanent Crops. Rev Cie Téc Agr [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.4  Epub Dec 01, 2019. ISSN 2071-0054.

The present work is a complement of the climatic and edaphological study developed in productive zones of the province of Manabí in Ecuador. The objective of the study was to determine the irrigation regime of five permanent crops in Manabí. The study focused on three agricultural areas of the Province (Chone, San Ramón and Mapasingue). Several scenarios were analyzed, including four edaphoclimatic zones combined with three irrigation management options. The results allow defining basic elements for the design and operation of irrigation systems and serve as a reference for studies oriented towards other crops and agricultural areas of Manabí.

Keywords : soil; evapotranspiration; crops; irrigation regime.
