Abstract
[ENG] Water has become the most precious of natural resources in many areas of Spain and, since agriculture is the major
consumer of water, improvements in water use efficiency are increasingly sought. Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI)
is an irrigation strategy based on applying only a fraction of the plant water requirements during certain periods of
plant development. The paper reviews the available information on RDI strategies, in woody tree crops and vines based
on studies by Spanish research groups. Both the promising results obtained and the drawbacks are covered. [ESP] El agua se ha convertido en el más preciado de los recursos naturales en muchas zonas de España y, dado que la
agricultura es el principal consumidor, es prioritario mejorar la eficiencia de uso del agua en la agricultura de regadío.
El riego deficitario controlado (RDC) es una estrategia de riego que se basa en aplicar tan sólo una fracción de
los requerimientos hídricos del cultivo durante determinados ...
