• Efficiency Analysis of Agricultural Irrigation Systems Using the Interval Type-2 Fuzzy TOPSIS Approach (2026) · Verimlilik dergisi · cited 1× · doi

  Future studies should consider conducting comparative analyses using alternative sets of criteria and different uncertainty modeling methods to contribute to the development of sustainable and efficient agricultural irrigation policies. It should also be noted that this study is limited to the selection and ranking of five alternative irrigation systems under six independent, non-interacting criteria to demonstrate the applicability of the employed methods.

• Closing irrigation-limited maize yield gaps in China under climate change (2026) · npj Sustainable Agriculture · doi

  The study identifies a research gap in the investigation of the extent to which the yield gap is closed under limited irrigation. Previous studies have primarily focused on the differences in yield or productivity between fully irrigated and rainfed conditions.
