Orchard Management Software :: Irrigation
Irrigation
The Irrigation screen allows you to record the number of hours of
watering either in advance, (where an instruction sheet can be generated),
or after the event.
As in all areas of the GrowData program, detailed set up makes for
simple operation. The cost of water per mega litre is established at both
peak and off peak rates.
When the blocks are being set up, information about the type of
- drippers/sprinklers used in each block
- flow rate of each type
- number of dripper/sprinklers per block
Once the program knows how many hours have been applied, it is a simple
function to calculate the volume of water per block and the cost.
Unfortunately it’s not always that simple, as many blocks will have
multiple valves and often parts of the block will be watered by different
shifts. To overcome this we have developed some very smart programming
which allows you to enter the number of valves on each block and then
shifts can be created which reflects how valves are actually grouped. All
you have to do is select the shifts that are to be turned on and GrowData
will do the rest.
