Managing irrigation and water stress with Sencrop
Knowing the water status of your plots is essential to define the water needs of your crops according to the phenological stage of your crop and your crop management. This allows you to adjust your irrigation systems at any time. Enter your soil type and crop type to obtain daily monitoring and a 5-day forecast of your soil's water reserve in each of your plots.
Various features will help you make the best decision:
Evapotranspiration (ETP)
The evapotranspiration of your crop is what the plant and the soil lose in water (soil evaporation + plant transpiration). It allows you to know the amount of water needed for the plants for optimal development and is calculated according to temperature, humidity, wind and irradiance.
Water balance and forecasts
Follow the state of the water reserve of your plots, according to the specific water needs of your crop and the natural contributions by rainfall or irrigation. Thanks to water forecasts, anticipate irrigation needs. Set up multiple water balances with the same station pack.
Growth stages
The decision on when to irrigate depends on the development stage of your plant. Indeed, the needs change throughout the season! Find in the application a predictive indicator of the development of your crops: emergence, flowering, harvesting... These indicators are defined according to your type of crop and the growing degree days.
