Tensiometer-based irrigation management of subirrigated soilless tomato: effects of substrate matric potential control on crop performance

This study aimed to determine the effects of irrigation management based on matric potential control on growth, plant-water relations, yield, fruit quality traits and water-use efficiency of subirrigated (through bench system) soilless tomato. Tensiometers were used for automatic irrigation control....
