What does AW stand for in irrigation terminology?

Applied Water
Available Water
Agricultural Water
Average Water

The correct answer is: Available Water

In irrigation terminology, AW stands for "Available Water." This refers to the water that is accessible for plant uptake from the soil and is an important concept in understanding soil moisture and irrigation management. It assists in determining how much water is present in the soil that can be taken up by plants, which is crucial for efficient irrigation practices. By knowing the available water, irrigation auditors and managers can make informed decisions regarding irrigation scheduling, ensuring plants receive the right amount of water without over- or under-irrigation. This focus on utilizing available water efficiently helps to conserve water resources and promotes sustainable agricultural practices.
