IRRIGATION & WATER MANAGEMENT
Precision application of fertilizers, often
through fertigation (injecting fertilizers into the
irrigation system), is a practice that helps make sure
that nutrients are delivered efficiently to the plants
directly through the irrigation system, reducing the
risk of nutrient runoff. "
- Mike Wade
prevent over-irrigation and reduce
runoff that can affect water quality
in other areas. "
It's important that fruit growers
integrate water quality data
with other agronomic factors,
such as soil health and nutrient
management, to optimize overall
orchard productivity.
" Precision application of fertilizers,
often through fertigation (injecting
fertilizers into the irrigation system),
is a practice that helps make
sure that nutrients are delivered
efficiently to the plants directly
through the irrigation system,
reducing the risk of nutrient runoff, "
Wade said.
Singh is keeping tabs on a grower
who is using AQUA 4D, which he
is testing at his orchard for water
quality monitoring and management.
" According to the company, AQUA
4D can remove bad minerals,
reduce soil compaction, bacteria
and nematodes in the soil when
irrigated with AQUA 4D treated
water, " he said.
Regulatory requirements
The Regional Water Quality Control
Board sets standards for nutrient
management, including the amount
of natural or synthetic fertilizers that
can be applied to a field. That helps
prevent overfertilization, which could
leach to groundwater or runoff from
a field into other lands or waterways.
Singh added that growers are
required to report the amount of
nitrogen fertilizer applications to
water coalitions such as Kings River
in the valley.
