|
| Instructions: Add daily evapotranspiration (ET) for each
day since your last irrigation. |
|
| This
is the amount of water the crop has used. This amount plus 10-20% for
efficiency must be added. |
|
| Totals
for two, three, four, five, and 7-days are added for you. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Rainfall is not included. Subtract effective rainfall for each
individual field. What is presented is |
| the
net amount of irrigation needed. Add
10 to 20% for irrigation inefficiency.
You might add 20% for high |
|
| pressure
overhead sprinklers and add at least 10% for low pressure drop nozzles. In the early season, do |
|
| not
irrigate until the amount needed is at least 0.50 inchesunless you are trying
to keep the surface wet for |
|
| emergence.
Irrigating with small amounts wastes water as most of the water is lost to
soil evaporation. |
