AG WATER CONSERVATION PRACTICES & TECHNOLOGY

So that the user may maneuver easily throughout the website, the information contained within the library is largely organized by agricultural water conservation practices and technology which have been divided into eight categories: Cropping Systems, Delivery Systems, Irrigation Management, Irrigation Technology, Ag Econ & Policy, Ag Water Recovery, Reuse & Recycling, Phreatophyte Control, and Soil Moisture/ET Measurement.

The below list has been compiled to target key agricultural water conservation practices but is not a comprehensive list of predetermined SUBJECT AREAS for which to do an extensive bibliographic inventory in the ag water conservation LIBRARY.

1. Irrigation scheduling
2. Water application measurement and record keeping
3. Conservation tillage
4. Furrow diking
5. Phreatophyte control
6. Ditch and canal lining / piping
7. Low pressure pivot irrigation
8. Drip / micro irrigation
9. Surge flow irrigation and polyacrylamide (PAM)
10. Tail water recovery / reuse
11. Remove center pivot end guns and associated planted areas
12. Limited or deficit irrigation
13. Precision water application
14. Partial dry-up of irrigated lands or including dry land rotating
15. Planting short season, cool season, and drought tolerant
16. Water Policy/Law
