| Abstract | When water is plentiful, growers usually schedule irrigation practices around other farming activities. For example, most growers change furrow irrigation sets at 12- or 24-hour intervals because this timing is convenient and uses labor efficiently. When water is in short supply, you need to rethink some practices to obtain maximum benefit from available water. After all, next to the land itself, water is a grower’s second most important resource. It makes sense to exchange management and labor for water. |
