Roth, Guy (2011-04-05)
The project was looking to achieve this through the development of a new system of soil preparation and management for irrigated orchards, row crops and pastures, enabling large inputs of stable soil organic matter, t

Pressure sensitive transducers (PSTs) can be used to precisely measure water depth and therefore accurately determine the seepage and evaporation losses from water storages.
Shade structures in general are suspended above the water surface using cables.
