Abstract: To sustain productive irrigated agriculture with limited water resources requires a high water use efficiency. This can be achieved by the precise scheduling of deficit irrigation systems taking into account the crops’ ...

Abstract: The determination of water application parameters for creating an optimal soil moisture profile represents a complex nonlinear optimization problem which renders traditional optimization into a cumbersome procedure. For ...

Abstract: The variable and limited availability of water for irrigation in agriculture is a general challenge for farmers to cope with. Sophisticated irrigation strategies are needed that allow an efficient management of the available ...
