Computerized Hole-Selection Computerized Hole Selection (CHS) is a computer software application which designs and evaluates systems. CHS uses pipe friction loss, pipe elevations and flow rate, and pressure to calculate punched hole sizes in layflat tubing (flexible poly-pipe) for uniform application of water, even in systems with varying row lengths. Down-row uniformity means rows are watered evenly, reducing tail water, improving irrigation efficiency and conserving water and energy.

Use of CHS has the potential to reduce water usage and irrigation cost by 25% or more in most cases. Irrigation Practices with Mike Hamilton and Nolan Evans (ARextension channel) The PHAUCET (Pipe Hole and Universal Crown Evaluation Tool) is a free computer software application. It was designed by engineers with the National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Missouri to calculate existing irrigation system performance and define alternatives for improving irrigation efficiency. PHAUCET assists farmers determine the sizes of the holes in the layflat flexible poly-pipe that best distribute the available water. The program also helps farmers improve timeliness of watering fields having different row lengths. (self-extracting; 8.7MB) PHAUCET Training Materials and Design Examples.

Scheduling Irrigation Using an Atmometer with Chris Henry Atmometers are simple to setup and require minimal upkeep. They should be placed adjacent to crop fields, and mounted at least 39 inches high and above the crop canopy, to provide accurate on-site information. At the beginning of the growing season, the atmometer reservoir should be filled with distilled water, and will likely need to be refilled once during the season. The paper wafer, which prevents rainwater from entering the atmometer, should be replaced annually.

Setting the Atmometer The following sheets have been developed to help Arkansas producers set their atmometers and may not be appropriate for use outside the region. Currently, a chart has not been developed for rice. ET Gauge Sheet - Cotton (coming soon) Atmometer Resources. The decision process of determining when to irrigate crops is referred to as irrigation scheduling.

There are several different irrigation scheduling methods available to producers who irrigate. Most of these methods have been evaluated in Research and Extension studies by the University of Arkansas System's Division of Agriculture. The approach to irrigation scheduling has been determined to be the most practical and suitable method for Arkansas producers. This approach is also used by producers in Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee and Missouri. The Arkansas Irrigation Scheduling website can be used for corn, cotton, grain sorghum and soybean crops that are irrigated with furrow, center pivot, border or levee irrigation methods.
