Precision Irrigation Management -
Getting the most out of your irrigation controller.

Your irrigation controller is probably the most important irrigation tool that you have at your disposal. Most irrigation controllers not only have the capacity to turn valves on and off, but have many other features that are rarely used. As a follow up to the Micro Irrigation Monitoring and Maintenance Workshops, MI offer this workshop to further assist in the monitoring, maintenance and control of your micro irrigation system. These workshops will be controller specific so you can share some of your comments with others who have the same controller as you and also liaise with an independent irrigation professional and the controller manufacturer representative.

Topics Covered:

> controller setup > filtration back flushing programming
> setting up a simple program > irrigation system fault finding
> fertigation programming > irrigation reporting
> cyclic and/or pulse watering > irrigation system analysis
