Author(s): Dr. AD Ashok, Dr. K Arunadevi and Dr. E Sujitha
Abstract: Land and water are the two basic important natural resources, play an important role in agriculture production. After globalization, crop cultivation under greenhouse conditions has emerged to cultivate crops under controlled environmental conditions. Polyhouse is designed to provide all the needs of the plants throughout the year without considering the climatic changes and natural weather. Micro irrigation is essential under polyhouse conditions for the precise application of water and nutrients at frequent intervals matching with crop growth curve to achieve higher water and nutrient use efficiency. This review deals with the water use efficiency under controlled environmental conditions.
