Irrigation Options:
Irrigation Efficiency to Maximise Production
Terry Horan & Rob Jones
THE BENEFITS OF ACCURATE IRRIGATION
It has been said “Plants don’t eat, plant’s drink” and how true it is. The natural minerals and fertilizer supplied to grow a crop must be in
solution for plants to access it.
Plants drink.
Tasmanian soils are highly variable within very short distances and these variations behave
differently, particularly with the way soils retain moisture. Consider every variation as requiring
special attention in order to maximise the plant’s ability to fully develop and produce a high yield.
