| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of evapotranspiration rates in determining irrigation requirements, explaining that there may be other variables that need to be considered. States that the author "[has] been working with a company for the past five or so years to investigate a better tool to help take out some of the magic in irrigation scheduling and replace it with a stronger dose of science." Details the development of the irrigation tool, reporting that "what we have shown is that by mapping out your course and finding turf areas that are similar in structure and turf type, the ability is there to use soil moisture monitoring to help better utilize your irrigation system and reduce water use." Summarizes the implementation of this practice at Heritage Links Golf Club in Lakeville, Minnesota. |
