Deep percolation losses in irrigation border-checks [1]

Soil infiltration and resistance to flow offered by soil and crop has a major influence on the entry of water below the soil surface in border-check irrigation. They are the key factors affecting the design of border-checks and need to be determined accurately. However, they change over the course of time, space and growing season, influencing the desing of border-checks.
