Summary
[edit]Description20150415-NRCS-LSC-0207 (17302354901).jpg | Joe Muller and Sons, Co-Owner Tom Muller dug down to check the soil condition of his crop of tomatoes, that receive underground micro irrigation, in Woodland, CA on Wednesday, Apr. 15, 2015. This is the end of a 3/4-mile long flat plastic flexible tube buried 10 inches below the ground with emitter holes that seep water to the roots of plants at a precise rate of delivery. The rows, plant, and tape have been set in place using GPS aided farm equipment. U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) District Conservationist Phil Hogan worked with him to make the application, what he says is an easy process. The farm qualified for an Environmental Quality Incentives Program cost share. California is currently undergoing a prolonged drought. This farm produces a 30-50% greater yield, due to precise watering along these ¾ mile rows of tomatoes. The buried plastic tubing with built in water emitters are 10” below the ground and are positioned using GPS. His orchards use micro sprinklers.
