Irrigation Scheduling for Young Highbush Blueberry Plants in Arkansas
Abstract A moisture accounting method was used to schedule trickle irrigation on 3-year-old highbush blueberry plants (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) ‘Bluecrop’ planted in 140-liter barrels. Crop coefficients (K) of 1.00, 0.75, and 0.50 were used to relate Class “A” Weather Bureau pan evaporation to consumptive water use during three growth stages.
