Model predictive control for precision irrigation of a Quinoa crop
Open Chemistry, 2022 Traditional High Andean agriculture is rainfed, and irrigation is commonly carried out in an open loop, that is, without measuring variables such as soil moisture content or plant development to define water consumption.

Steering of fogging: control of humidity: temperature or transpiration [PDF]
, 2008 Fogging systems are increasingly used to cool greenhouses and prevent water stress. More recently, fogging systems are applied also in relatively low radiation environments (such as The Netherlands), for a better control of product quality than ...

Irrigation controller mechanically actuated by soil-water tension: II - Field evaluations
Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e AmbientalIn this study, a field evaluation of the performance of an irrigation controller mechanically actuated by soil-water tension (SWT) was performed. The controller employs a tensiometer used as a sensor of SWT to directly control a mechanically actuated ...

A Structured Optimal Controller for Irrigation Networks
2022 European Control Conference (ECC), 2022 In this paper, we apply an optimal LQ controller, which has an inherent structure that allows for a distributed implementation, to an irrigation network. The network consists of a water reservoir and connected water canals. The goal is to keep the levels close to the set-points when farmers take out water.
