About this app
Irrigation scheduling
Irrigator Pro provides growers of peanuts, cotton, and corn with a simple tool to determine when to irrigate to ensure optimal crop growth while minimizing irrigation costs.
These irrigation recommendations are based on long-term, multi-crop irrigation management research performed by the ARS National Peanut Research Laboratory in Dawson, GA.
Irrigator Pro calculates the available water in the soil and the daily water needs of the crop based in its growth stage. If the water needs of the crop exceeds the available water in the soil, irrigation is recommended.
Irrigator Pro can estimate the available soil water content using:
○ Manually entered rainfall and irrigation data,
○ Manually entered values from soil water potential or volumetric water content sensors,
○ Soil water potential sensors values wireless transmitted to the University of Georgia (UGA) data repository,
○ Soil water potential sensors values from UGA Probe and Bridge device,
○ Soil water potential sensors values from Trellis - Wireless Soil Moisture System, or
○ Volumetric water content sensors values from AgSense - Wireless Soil Moisture System.
Irrigator Pro notifies users on irrigation needs and crop phenological changes.
This project is led by the Flint River Soil and Water Conservation District in cooperation with the University of Georgia and the USDA-ARS National Peanut Research Lab. This app is based upon work supported by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, under number 69-3A75-13-193.
