Determining the Amount of Irrigation Water Applied to a Field

3 pp. === Critical to any irrigation management approach is an accurate estimate of the amount of water applied to a field. Too little water causes unnecessary water stress and can result in yield reductions. Too much water can cause water logging, leaching, and may also result in loss of yield. Thi...
