Farm 4 NQ Case Study RWUE

The efficient and profitable production of turf grass involves several farm management practices that directly and indirectly influence productivity, energy and water use. The introduction of precision agriculture techniques and sophisticated technologies, as well as adopting modern management practices can help to improve production. 

Assessing an irrigation system and the associated management practices can help to identify any hidden issues that are affecting productivity and what options or actions can be taken to increase productivity while reducing costs. An understanding of how all factors affect production is needed to refine operating practices to obtain the most efficient production system. 

This case study discusses how assessing a new irrigation system and adjusting management practices can help to maintain productivity when unforeseen catastrophic events occur and unexpected opportunity arise.
