Open AccessToward automated irrigation management with integrated crop water stress index and spatial soil water balance
Decision support systems intended for precision irrigation aim at reducing irrigation applications while optimizing crop yield to achieve maximum crop water productivity (CWP). These systems incorporate on-sit...

Open AccessResolving discrepancies between laboratory-determined field capacity values and field water content observations: implications for irrigation management
The concept of soil water contents at field capacity (FC at 0.33 MPa) and at wilting point (WP at 15 MPa) is often used to explain plant water availability and as maximal and minimal limits on observed soil wa...

Using an integrated crop water stress index for irrigation scheduling of two corn hybrids in a semi-arid region
Different thermal-based plant feedback systems have been used for irrigation management of cotton and grain crops in the Texas High Plains region, producing yields that are similar or better than irrigation sc...

Crop response of drought-tolerant and conventional maize hybrids in a semiarid environment
In the High Plains, corn (Zea mays L.) is an important commodity for livestock feed. However, limited water resources and drought conditions continue to hinder corn production. Drought-tolerant (DT) corn hybrids...
