1. Farmer Uptake of Variable Rate Irrigation Technologies in New Zealand

Cost effective technological advances in recent years have allowed the uptake of variable rate irrigation (VRI) systems in New Zealand. Typically an existing sprinkler irrigator is modified for variable rate irrigation, irrigation management zones are defined using EM (electromagnetic)... C. Hedley, I. Yule

2. Application of a Systems Model to a Spatially Complex Irrigated Agricultural System: A Case Study

Although New Zealand is water-rich, many of the intensively farmed lowland areas suffer frequent summer droughts. Irrigation schemes have been developed to move water from rivers and aquifers to support agricultural production. There is therefore a need to develop tools and recommendations that consider both water dynamics and outcomes in these irrigated cropping systems. A spatial framework for an existing systems model (APSIM Next Generation) was developed that could capture the variability... J. Sharp, C. Hedley
