In a 5 ha area, it was determined that the soil volumetric field capacity and permanent wilting points are 25% and 15% respectively. Crop consumptive use is 5mm/day, application efficiency is 80% and irrigation application rate is 32m³/hr. The allowable soil moisture depletion is 60%, apparent specific gravity is 1.2 and the depth of rootzone is 0.8m Determine the net depth of irrigation water to be applied (mm)
