This new Grenache vineyard that your company purchased has no paperwork describing the irrigation system. You measure the rows at 10 feet apart and the drip emitters at 3 feet apart. When you first turn of on the system, you place measuring containers under 25 different emitters - the average emitter has an output of 0.5 gallons per hour. How many gallons per acre per hour is that? How many gallons can your system apply in a 24 hour period? How many inches is that (27,154 gallons in an acre inch)? The previous owner told you he put on 96 hours of water after harvest last year, to prepare the vines for winter - how many inches is that? If this block typically receives 22 applications of water per year, that are 24 hours each, how many gallons of water is that per acre per year? How many feet is that per acre per year (325,851 gallons in an acre foot)?

This new Grenache vineyard that your company purchased has no paperwork describing the
irrigation system. You measure the rows at 10 feet apart and the drip emitters at 3 feet apart. When
you first turn of on the system, you place measuring containers under 25 different emitters - the
average emitter has an output of 0.5 gallons per hour. How many gallons per acre per hour is that?
How many gallons can your system apply in a 24 hour period? How many inches is that (27,154
gallons in an acre inch)? The previous owner told you he put on 96 hours of water after harvest last
year, to prepare the vines for winter - how many inches is that? If this block typically receives 22
applications of water per year, that are 24 hours each, how many gallons of water is that per acre per
year? How many feet is that per acre per year (325,851 gallons in an acre foot)?
