Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given that rice requires 120-140 cm of water over a base period of 135 days, calculate the total water volume required for 1,000 hectares.
💡 Hint: Remember to convert hectares to the appropriate unit for volume.
If cotton's delta is 70-85 cm over a base period of 200 days, how would you estimate the total irrigation system needed for a region with 50,000 hectares?
💡 Hint: Make sure you account for the conversions for cm to m for your calculations.
