Description:
Irrigation water management is an important process that requires basic understanding of principles and relationships of water, soil, air and plants. Though these principles are well-defined in standards, literature and by various professional societies and associations, they are not always customarily used by irrigation practitioners. The concepts and terms presented in this article are described so that all irrigators can speak the same language.
