TL;DR: In this paper, a profound water productivity analysis was carried out at five selected farmer fields (two for wheat and three for wheat-cotton) in Sirsa district, India during the agricultural year 2001-02.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the ability of SWAPd to account for various salinity effects in grapevines under arid conditions, and compare results from SWAPD and SWAPs growth models.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the hydrological problems that affect agriculture in humid and temperate climates such as that of the Netherlands as well as in semi-arid climates.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the identification of appropriate strategies to improve water management and productivity in an irrigated area of 4270 km2 in India (Sirsa district), where the field scale ecohydrological model SWAP in combination with field experiments, remote sensing and GIS has been applied in a distributed manner generating required hydrological and biophysical variables to evaluate alternative water management scenarios at different spatial and temporal scales.

TL;DR: Wesseling, van Schilfgaarde, and Bouwer as discussed by the authors reviewed the circumstances and highlights of their contributions to responsible management of water in agriculture, and described their training, document their early scientific contributions, especially in the realm of agricultural drainage, and highlight their later service as research managers.
