Many growers think of irrigation as a "rescue" technique. Thats the wrong way to think about it. To make it pay, it must be a quality control technique. Water is the key ingredient in producing quality products, and quality is the key to establishing premium prices. Consistency in the market is the key to maintaining premium prices. Irrigation is critical to achieving quality and consistency in the market. If you use it this way, it becomes clearer how it pays for itself.
