DESCRIPTION:PhD Oral Defense of Aghil Yari\, Department of Bioresource Engi
 neering\n\nVariable-rate irrigation (VRI) is an emerging technology to opt
 imize water and energy consumption\, increase crop yields\, and minimize e
 nvironmental impacts. VRI technology is capable of applying irrigation wat
 er and fertilizer spatially across a field to meet the specific needs of c
 rop and soil on pre-defined management zones. The principal goal of this r
 esearch project was to identify the potential water and energy savings\, a
 nd crop productivity benefits of VRI. The study aimed to assess the perfor
 mance of VRI\, and to investigate field spatial and temporal variability f
 or delineating irrigation management zones. The research included a four-y
 ear field experiment during the 2013 to 2016 growing seasons at the Albert
 a Irrigation Technology Centre (AITC) in southern Alberta\, Canada.\n\nEve
 ryone in the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense. Ple
 ase join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.\n
