Pipe Planner Webinar Schedule

To address the declining Mississippi River Valley Alluvial aquifer, Mississippi State University developed the Row-Crop Irrigation Science and Extension Research (RISER) program. RISER’s goal is to develop a science based approach for evaluating Irrigation Water Management (IWM) practices in the Mississippi Delta and to assist producers in the adoption of IWM practices that reduce water use, maintain yield potential and improve profitability.

The foundation of the RISER program in furrow irrigated environments is computerized hole selection.  PHAUCET was the flagship computerized hole selection program developed by the Natural Resource Conservation Service, but this program has been replaced by Delta Plastic’s Pipe Planner.   Pipe Planner uses friction loss, poly-tubing elevation, well flow rates at the riser, field shape, and pressure changes in the poly-tubing associated with the interaction among these parameters to calculate hole sizes in layflat poly-tubing to ensure uniform application of water across the irrigation set, irregardless of field shape.

If you haven’t tried Pipe Planner, we encourage you to investigate implementation of Pipe Planner on your farm.  Below you will find invitations to two Pipe Planner Weekly Webinars for week one to assist producers in implementing Pipe Planner. Chris DeClerk’s contact info is at the bottom of this page for additional information.
