                          Crop irrigation requirements calculator


                          Description

                          This program was written as an aid for predicting the irrigation requirements of annual and perennial crops grown in different regions of Western Australia. The program can also be used as a guide for estimating irrigation requirements under different management strategies or for ground water allocation.
