Irrigation season is right around the corner for many farmers. Do you have an irrigation water management plan in place? 💧🌱

Irrigation water management plans help you to manage soil moisture on your farm for benefits like optimized use of water resources, minimized erosion, enhanced water quality, and healthier, more productive crops.

Scheduling irrigation for when it’s needed is critical to save water and money during the growing season. Tools like soil moisture sensors, pump automation, weather stations and more can help you be an effective irrigator.

To learn more about implementing an irrigation plan on your operation, just visit your nearest USDA Service Center.
