IMPROVED IRRIGATION WATER MANAGEMENT FOR WATER-SCARCE REGIONS AND SALT-AFFECTED LANDS

Objective

The overall goal of the project is to develop digital agriculture (DA) tools that help farmers increase profits, conserve soil and water resources, and improve water and salinity management. The specific objective is to develop procedures for using proximal and remote sensors in combination with advanced computational approaches to characterize root-zone soil properties and determine field and sub-field water requirements.
