Article on Variable Rate Irrigation

In addition to precisely irrigating his fields, the customer stated the following about VRI: “Interestingly enough, variable-rate irrigation appears to be another management tool for controlling white mold,” he says. “By using the VRI in conjunction with moisture probes, we were able to keep the top layer of soil a little dryer so it didn’t accelerate the development of mold spores.”
