Question 1
A farmer has a crop that uses 500 m³ of water and yields 10,000 kg. Calculate the WUE. If the MAD is set at 20%, how much water can be depleted from an available 250 mm of water before irrigating?
💡 Hint: Calculate WUE by dividing yield by water used.
Question 2
Given a soil moisture level of 80% of field capacity, determine the allowable depletion level if the total available water is 200 mm and the MAD is 30%. How would this affect irrigation scheduling?
💡 Hint: Think about how much water the soil can afford to lose.
