The phrase "amounts of irrigation" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the quantity or volume of water used for irrigation purposes in agriculture or landscaping.
Example: "Farmers need to carefully monitor the amounts of irrigation to ensure optimal crop growth without wasting water."
Alternatives: "quantities of irrigation" or "volumes of irrigation".
About nine percent of that is grown in California, yet there is an increasing concern about the large amounts of irrigation water required to attain maximum yield.
The irrigation water use was then evaluated and results showed that large amounts of irrigation water percolated due to over-irrigation but their reuse through capillary rise was also quite large.
Importantly, although there were no significant differences in average crop yields between two water input levels (W80% and Wsat), the amounts of irrigation and evaporation under W80% treatment were reduced significantly by 71.9% and 36.2%, respectively.
This research investigated the effect of the amounts of irrigation in combination with tillage practices on soil evaporation (E), water consumption (ET) characteristics, and grain yield performance and water use efficiency (WUE) for wheat (Triticum aestivum L). intercropped with maize (Zea mays L). in strip planting in an Oasis region.
In particular, the cultivation of sugar beet and potato required large amounts of irrigation water.
This trend drives the bulk production of cereals, especially rice and wheat, to use inadequate amounts of irrigation.
While several authors have proposed techniques for irrigation, many issues remain unresolved including the irrigating pressures, the amount of irrigation, and the irrigating solution[ 2, 11- 14].
MODERATO is a management oriented cropping system model developed for use at a strategic level by irrigation advisors confronted with the question: 'How to irrigate maize with a limited amount of irrigation water?'.
The irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE) or ratio of the difference between irrigated and rainfed yield to the amount of irrigation water applied was estimated.
Since the irrigation ditches are lined with concrete and individual plots were irrigated in sequence, it was possible to measure amount of irrigation water applied fairly accurately.
In alternate partial root-zone irrigation (APRI) a significant amount of irrigation water can be saved without considerable yield reduction.
