Web applications and tools for irrigation management, irrigation calculations, and irrigation decision support.
Irrigation Optimization Support Tool
Irrigation Technology Cost/Benefit Analysis Calculator
Web-based decision support tool developed by USU Extension Crops and Washington State University experts for estimating the benefits and costs of agricultural irrigation water management and equipment optimization improvements.
Irrigation Distribution Uniformity Tool
Cost/Benefit of Increasing Uniformity Calculator
Web-based decision support tool developed by USU Extension for estimating the benefits and costs of increasing irrigation uniformity of center pivots. This tool requires the user to enter data from their farm to determine the economic value of increasing distribution uniformity.
Irrigation Management Tools
Irrigation Scheduler Mobile
Web-based irrigation scheduling tool developed by Washington State University. USU agricultural and orchard electronic weather stations have been added to the tool for selection. The tool requires the user to create an AgWeaterNet (WSU's electronic weather station network). The tool makes irrigation recommendations based on modeled crop evapotranspiration and user-entered irrigation depths. The user may also manually input the fraction of available water in the crop root zone to update the modeled crop root zone soil water balance.
