Cover Story: With around 62% of both surface and ground water used for agricultural irrigation in Australia, conserving even a small percentage of this water at the point-of-use, through more efficient irrigation application, can have a significant impact on the sustainability of our limited freshwater resources. The development of a smart irrigation system using the unique L-band sensing facility is initiated to achieve more efficient irrigation on a potato farm, as well as to increase its yield. View this paper
