Abstract

The experiment was carried out at the Federal University of Lavras, Brazil, from August 2007 to February 2008 in order to evaluate the effects of soil-water suction on the production and quality of yellow passion fruit. The statistical design consisted of randomized blocks with four replications and four soil-water suctions corresponding to 15, 30, 45 and 60 kPa. The crops were drip irrigated when suction at the depth of 0.20 m was equivalent to that defined for each treatment. There was no significant effect of the adopted treatments, therefore the crop could be irrigated when the soil-water suction reached 60kPa without affecting production and quality of the fruits.
