Exploring Spatial And Temporal Variability Of Soil And Crop Processes For Irrigation Management, Javier Reyes
Exploring Spatial And Temporal Variability Of Soil And Crop Processes For Irrigation Management, Javier Reyes
Theses and Dissertations--Plant and Soil Sciences
Irrigation needs to be applied to soils in relatively humid regions such as western Kentucky to supply water for crop uptake to optimize and stabilize yields. Characterization of soil and crop variability at the field scale is needed to apply site specific management and to optimize water application. The objective of this work is to propose a characterization and modeling of soil and crop processes to improve irrigation management. Through an analysis of spatial and temporal behavior of soil and crop variables the variability in the field was identified. Integrative analysis of soil, crop, proximal and remote sensing data was …
