The Irrigation Association, Fairfax, Virginia, will host “ROI of Improving Drip Irrigation System Distribution Uniformity,” a one-hour webinar on April 26.
Attendees will learn about how drip is widely used, especially in states like California, and how to use distribution uniformity measurements to assess existing drip irrigation system performance. The webinar will cover how DU is measured, the results of DU measurements taken to date in California and what poor DU could mean for input costs, foregone yield/quality and environmental implications. Attendees will also hear about two efforts underway to improve poor on-farm drip irrigation system DU.
The webinar, which is open to the public and offers most participants continuing education credits, is part of the IA’s Industry Insights series that features 60-minute sessions including a presentation and Q&A. The webinars cover issues current and relevant to those working in the industry today, featuring knowledgeable experts presenting information on trends, research and best practices.
This drip irrigation webinar will be presented by Inge Bisconer, CID, CLIA, managing member of Surf ‘N Earth Enterprises and IA president-elect; James Anshutz, PE, Ag H2O Inc. founder and owner; and Tom Devol, senior manager field outreach for the Almond Board of California.
The cost to attend the webinar is $35 for IA members and $50 for nonmembers. It is worth one CEU.
