For more advanced precision irrigation prescriptions • CropMetrics – data management service
What does CropMetrics do? • 3-D spatial data layer – Landscape Change (topography) overlaid with Deep EM (soil type) • Used to determine which factors have the greatest influence on yield at each point and to what degree + = LC Deep EM 3-D Soils Map
Comparison of Irrigation Optimization by Speed Control or Zone
Conclusions • Having a uniform sprinkler package may not maximize profitability under a center pivot • Available precision irrigation packages • Sector Control • VRI Speed Control • VRI Zone Control • Solutions to writing prescriptions • Valley VRI Prescription software • CropMetrics
