Description

This publication provides information on the moisture accounting method used to determine when to apply irrigation water. The keys to the method are the amount of moisture that the irrigated soil will hold, the daily moisture use of the crop, and the net amount of water applied during each irrigation. It also provides sample forms and instructions.
