Abstract
Irrigation water management involves determining when to irrigate, the proper amount to apply, and operating and maintaining the irrigation system. The main objective should be to manage the crop production system for profit without compromising the environment. A site specific management plan based on irrigation and drainage water quality analysis should be developed and implemented for this purpose.
