Apple production for the export market is in South Africa entirely dependent on irrigation. In recent years, high performing orchards yielding up to 120 t of fruit ha-1 are becoming common in a country where the average ...
Water-use dynamics of an alien-invaded riparian forest within the Mediterranean climate zone of the Western Cape, South Africa

Scott-Shaw, Bruce C.; Everson, Colin Stuart; Clulow, Alistair D. (Copernicus Publications, 2017-09-13)

In South Africa, the invasion of riparian forests by alien trees has the potential to affect the country’s limited water resources. Tree water-use measurements have therefore become an important component of recent ...
