Reclamation of Ancient Agricultural Soils in Wahidi, South Arabia
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 October 2008
Summary
Where ancient agricultural sites are brought back into cultivation, using new forms of irrigation, cotton often grows badly in the first few seasons. A theory is developed to account for these failures, and it is shown that heavy irrigations before planting not only produce better crops but may also economise in water.
