摘要: ●SUMMARY. This study evaluates the effect of irrigation on profitability muscadine grape (Vitis rotundifi lia) operation. Data from a 3-year experiment in which grapes were grown under four regimes used to establish relationship between yields and irrigation. Assuming fruit price $0.50/lb, harvesting costs $0.21/lb, $16.75/acre-inch, profi t-maximizing level was estimated be 13.1 acre-inches for season, or 7 gal/day per plant. Water requirements t maximization are 9% lower than water yield maximizing. Moreover, it is concluded that an adequate use tability operation can substantial.
