To achieve high horticultural productivity, it is known that an optimal supply of irrigation water is required. Cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) has been classified as an intermediate sensitive to water stress. Also, the development of plants under drought stress can have effects on quality and productivity, so it is necessary to use water efficiently when it comes to cabbage crops. Also, many studies show that the early effects of stress against plants can be compensated by an optimal supply of water in the growth stages. This review paper collected the latest information from the literature on cabbage water requirements, listing the most effective irrigation methods that lead to water efficiency in crops and irrigation programming to have the best cabbage production in the field.
