DESCRIPTION
Anish’s project will focus on data-driven site-specific irrigation management to increase crop production and agricultural water use efficiency. Results from this study will help producers to identify water-stressed areas within their field, transition from uniform irrigation to the site-specific irrigation systems, and to increase water use efficiency while maintaining the optimum production. The findings will also help to bring food security to the southern California community and the campus.
