Notes on Specific Crop Needs
-
Corn: Requires consistent moisture levels for optimal growth, particularly during the germination and flowering stages.
-
Tomatoes: Sensitive to over-watering. Micro-sprinkler systems help prevent leaf moisture, which reduces disease risk.
-
Wheat: Less frequent irrigation required; furrow method suits the extensive root systems and helps conserve water.
-
Lettuce: Requires a gentle and consistent water supply to prevent leaf burning and promote crisp, healthy leaves.
-
Almonds: Deep watering necessary to reach the deep root systems, crucial during the nut development phase.
Additional Guidelines
-
Water Quality Monitoring: Regular testing to ensure water suitability for crop health and productivity.
-
Weather Adjustments: Irrigation schedules will be adjusted based on real-time weather conditions to avoid over-irrigation during rainy periods.
-
Soil Moisture Checks: Conduct soil moisture checks regularly to ensure the irrigation meets the crop's actual needs and adjust the schedule as necessary.
-
System Maintenance: Regular checks and maintenance of irrigation systems to ensure efficient operation and prevent wastage due to leaks or malfunctions.
