Test: Irrigation - Question 2

During a particular stage of the growth of a crop, consumptive use of water is 28 mm/day. If the amount of water available in the soil is 25% of 80 mm depth of water, what is the frequency of irrigation?

Detailed Solution for Test: Irrigation - Question 2

Water available to the soil

Additional water required

= 80 – 20 = 60 mm

Frequency of irrigation

Thus the crop should be irrigated after every 21 days.
