Irrigation is crucial for maintaining optimal turfgrass growth, especially in regions with sporadic rainfall. However, irrigation systems can develop issues like uneven water distribution, leading to over- or under-watering. Achieving >80% distribution uniformity under ideal conditions is challenging but essential for efficient irrigation. This seminar focuses on the importance of irrigation uniformity, conducting audits, and calculating uniformity to improve application efficiency. We’ll cover factors affecting efficiency, including system design, maintenance, and soil properties like texture and drainage.
