| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses central control irrigation systems. Describes components of the system, including the system hardware and the central software. Also discusses weather station equipment, stating that "daily weather data from an onsite weather station afford the opportunity to react quickly to weather changes." Concludes that "centralized control and irrigation scheduling are reliable and cost effective tools when properly applied...Weather station data is fundamental to irrigation scheduling, and scheduling irrigation is a fundamental component of conserving water and reducing annual costs." |
