Effects of Different Surface and subsurface Drainage Systems on Canola Leaf Area and developing mathematical governed equations

In Mazandaran Province the performance of different drainage systems is essential for Canola cultivation as a second crop in paddies. For this purpose an experiment was conducted in Sari agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources University as base, in 2017-2018 cropping season. In different canola growth stage intervals, eight sampling were established under randomized complete block design with three replications in subsurface drainage systems and surface (Control) in order to determinate leaf area (LA), leaf area index (LAI), numbers of leaves (SLN) and leaf dry weight (LDW). Then Statistical analysis was carried for study of drainage depth and space on the mentioned growth index and mathematical relationship between leaf area and its dry weight with the evaluation of linear and nonlinear regression models was determined in different drainage systems. Maximum of LA in all treatments occurred about 90 day after planting. Mathematical relations between LA and LDW were described by linear and power model is suitable as a correlation coefficient was 0.98. Among the mathematical functions, reverse polynomial functions with degrees 4 and 5, logarithmic equations and inverse logarithmic equations with degrees 3, 4, and 5 showed better results than other mathematical functions The relations obtained in this experiment can be used in simulation models of winter canola growth under water table control conditions.
