Crop Production Practices for Irrigated Land in the James Basin and Angostura Areas

Abstract

This bulletin presents agronomic irrigation information obtained since 1954. Most of the work reported herein was conducted at the Irrigation Development Farm near Redfield, but results from other irrigated research locations in South Dakota are included. Water management research, which concerned the consumptive use of water by plants, moisture extraction from the soil profile, field irrigation efficiencies, and sprinkler irrigation, was conducted in the period, 1948-1953. The results of this work prior to 1954 were reported in South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars 104 and 107
