Irrigation Water Management
Irrigation water management encourages the application of water in an amount that
meets the need of the growning plant in a manner that avoids extended soil saturation
and runoff. By increasing application precision and reducing unneeded application,
water can be conserved and energy can be saved.
Irrigation Evaluations
The Irrigation Mobile Lab is a service that provides on-site evaluations of individual irrigation systems. Based on these evaluations, a mobile lab technician can work with growers to develop irrigation water management plans tailored to their individual needs. The plans include recommendations to improve system performance, such as developing a maintenance plan and revising irrigation schedules. Through this service, growers learn to operate their systems more effectively and save water in the process. Not available at this time.
