Irrigation and fertilisation
Calculate irrigation and fertigation for each crop, interpret your analyses and plan fertilisation.
- How to make a fertiliser plan by crop growth stageHow to make a fertiliser plan by growth stage: calculate UF/ha, subtract soil and water supply, split nutrients by stage and pick the product.
- How to read an irrigation water analysis (EC, SAR and bicarbonates)How to read an irrigation water analysis: acceptable EC, SAR and bicarbonate levels, the risks they signal and how to correct them in fertigation.
- How to calculate crop irrigation and fertiliser month by month (fertigation)How to calculate fertigation month by month: water from ETo and Kc, fertiliser from crop needs and analyses, and irrigation time. Step by step.
- Crop coefficient (Kc) by growth stage: how to adjust itWhat the crop coefficient (Kc) is, how it changes by stage under FAO-56 and how to adjust it to your climate, canopy and field to irrigate just right.
- Crop water footprint: what it is and how to calculate itWhat a crop's water footprint is, its blue, green and grey components, how to calculate it in litres per kilo and how to reduce it.
