Strawberries: The effects of modifying irrigation methods for transplant establishment
Funding by: California Department of Food & Agriculture US Bureau of Reclamation – Mid Pacific Region California Strawberry Commission John Deere Water United Water Conservation District
Objectives:
- Keep strawberry transplants healthy
- Switch to drip irrigation as early as possible
Main Issues:
- Soil salinity management
- Uncollected sprinkler irrigation run-off
Keys to Implementation:
- Real-time soil salinity sensors
- Correct drip irrigation design and management
- Demonstration-scale plots
Results:
- Improved yields (~10%) and less water applied (~10%)
