AGR0125 - Water Balance

Water Balance is a method used to calculate the availability of water in the soil, considering all inputs, such as rainfall and irrigation, and outputs, such as evapotranspiration and surface runoff.

In the agricultural context, it is an essential tool for efficient irrigation management, helping to determine the timing and ideal amount of water to be applied. This prevents water stress in plants, favoring their development and increasing productivity. In addition, the use of water balance contributes to crop planning, the selection of crops and cultivars suitable for the local climate, and the promotion of more sustainable and economical agriculture.
