Overview

Irrigation scheduling is the process of coordinating the delivery of water to crops or plants in order to satisfy crop requirements for water at each stage of its growth. This is an important agricultural management practice that helps optimize water use efficiency, promote better crop growth, and reduce the risk of water waste. By correctly scheduling irrigation, field operators can save money, conserve water resources, and help improve crop yield and quality. Such techniques also help farmers to reduce risks associated with water shortages, flooding, and other climate-related problems. In addition, irrigation scheduling can be used to reduce pest outbreaks and disease pressure.
