USGA Summary Points:During 2020, soil moisture sensor placement was finalized, the irrigation control system was rezoned, and the system was configured to record total water use by treatment, fairway, and soil moisture class. Irrigation treatments were initiated in 2020, and total water use was recorded throughout four independent runs during summer and fall 2020 and 2021 (two runs per year). Dry downs were conducted to determine the appropriate soil moisture thresholds for the SMS-based treatment prior to treatment aplications each run. Precision Sense 6000 (PS6000) surveys were conducted twice weekly for each run. Significantly less water was consumed on fairways using the SMS-based treatment. The ET-based approach used the most water of all treatments. Turf quality data from 2020 and 2021 will be analyzed and a refereed journal article will be submitted in 2022.
