  • Addressing Data Resolution in Precision Agriculture

    Creator:
    Kelley, Jason
    Abstract:
    Irrigated agriculture constitutes the greatest consumptive water use globally, so that irrigation efficiency measures are an important part of global efforts to best utilize this limited resource. However, greater irrigation efficiency must be achieved while simultaneously maintaining or increasing crop yields and farming profitability. Incremental water use decisions are made...

  • Estimating crop yield and production changes as a function of irrigation deficit based on watershed and county level data

    Creator:
    Darakjian, Priscila
    Abstract:
    Response of agricultural crops to irrigation water deficit is well-understood at the field scale. Broader scale (watershed and county levels) studies have been less frequently performed. Data collection at the field level for extensive areas is time consuming and expensive. The importance of studies at a broader scale for evaluating...
