# Schedule irrigation on data instead of habit

> Soil moisture sensing, evapotranspiration budgets, and efficiency tracking protecting both yield and water rights.

**Track:** 🌾 Agriculture & AgTech · **Domain:** Farm Data & Tech · **Level:** intermediate · **~30 min**

**Who this is for:** Farm Managers, Agronomists, AgTech Builders, Supply Sustainability Teams

## When to Use This Skill

Soil moisture sensing, evapotranspiration budgets, and efficiency tracking protecting both yield and water rights.
Use it whenever a matching task appears in conversation — the agent loads these instructions on demand.

## Steps

1. Place sensors by zone representativeness and root depth of the crop stage
2. Budget water from ET references + crop coefficients, adjusted locally
3. Define trigger thresholds per growth stage; document deviations
4. Check distribution uniformity annually; fix the worst emitters first
5. Record pumping hours vs applied depth; losses reveal leaks/scheduling gaps
6. Season review: yield per ML as the efficiency headline

## Common Pitfalls

- Irrigating to calendar regardless of rainfall reality
- Uniformity problems blamed on scheduling
