This following link is to the Department of Agriculture and Food's Irrigation Calculator Program. This was developed as an aid for predicting the irrigation requirements of annual and perennial crops grown in different regions of Western Australia. The program uses long-term evaporation data to calculate water requirements for user specified crop type and planting dates. The program can also be used as a guide for estimating irrigation requirements under different management strategies or for groundwater allocation. Click through to the Irrigation Calculator
