PHENOLOGY OF FIG (Ficus carica L.) WITH INDUCED HYDRIIC DEFICIT INDUCED - BY DRIP IRRIGATION

The fig tree (Ficus carica L) is a crop that despite being very remote and used for a long time as a non-commercial species, has been gradually taking place in world production. Mexico has climatic conditions and advantages to become an important producer internationally, however, its annual production is low and this could be due, among other things, to the little information and experimentation on the influence of irrigation on the production of this species. Worldwide, research has been done on water deficit on yield and fruit quality, but the influence it has on the phenological development of the crop has been ignored. The objective of this research was to evaluate the phenology of vitroplants and plants per fig stake with water deficit induced by drip irrigation in greenhouse with a 3x2 factorial arrangement resulting in 6 treatments; T1 In vitro 2.3 mm/day, T2 Stake 2.3 mm/day, T3 In vitro 1.7 mm/day, T4 Stake 1.7 mm/day, T5 In vitro 1.1 mm/day, T6 Stake 1.1 mm/day.
