Evaluating spatial and temporal variations in sub-field level crop water demands

Frontiers in Agronomy, 2022
Variable rate irrigation (VRI) requires accurate knowledge of crop water demands at the sub-field level. Existing VRI practices commonly use one or more variables like soil electrical conductivity, historical yields, and topographic maps to delineate ...

Optimizing variable rate irrigation using model and satellite-based dynamic prescription maps

Agricultural Water Management
Variable rate irrigation is usually based on prescription maps delineated according to a static approach. Irrigation rate and timing are optimized by sensor and/or models applied within homogenous zones whose spatial distribution is kept constant during ...
