Main Page Latest Information Articles ... Contacts PROPER WATER MANAGEMENT KEY TO TURFGRASS DROUGHT STRESS Gil Landry The key to green lawns during drought is to prepare the grass to use as little extra water as possible and remain green and growing. This is done by developing a deep rooted turfgrass. Listed below are the guidelines which will help develop a deep-rooted turfgrass that is more tolerant to seasonal drought. Select a turfgrass which is well adapted to your location. Irrigate as infrequently as possible. Irrigate when the turf starts turning a dull bluish green, the first sign of drought stress. Apply enough water to drench the soil six to eight inches deep. Raise the height of cut during stress and mow more often. Use an irrigation system that provides an even distribution of water at about one-fourth to one-third inches per hour. Fertilize lightly in the summer months, especially on tall fescue.

Drought, Water, Forages and Cattle Range-land management during drought By Barry W. Adams, Range Management Specialist, Sustainable Resource Development, Southern Region Are You Ready for the Next Drought? This drought checklist was first published in June of 1992 and its distribution was followed by heavy late-spring precipitation perhaps its time to publish it once again! The checklist is an accumulation of management practices from the experience of many of our grazing lease holders in Southern Alberta and from other jurisdictions in North America, lessons that are worth reconsidering at times like this. This is a distressing time for farmers and ranchers given the extended dry conditions of the past years. We don't know what the future holds, but when drought hits, livestock producers face the painful dilemma of reducing stocking rates (grazing pressure) or damaging their range-land. This checklist examines some of the measures you might consider to reduce the impacts of drought on your livestock operation and the range resource, and hasten recovery when the drought is over. Drought Effects on Range-land During drought, low soil moisture levels limit plant growth and cause reduced forage yields.

Features Current Features Archive Features NRCS Earth Team Volunteers ... Publications Prepare Your Farm or Ranch Before Drought Strikes Having a good drought plan in place can help your operation weather even the most severe drought conditions. Your plan should be part of a comprehensive conservation plan that considers the kinds and conditions of all of your resources, and consider how crops, forage, and other resources have reacted to drought in the past. Precipitation is the largest single determinant of drought. Temperature and other climate elements are also important. It is not uncommon for drought periods to be accompanied by higher summer temperatures. Drought planning involves preparing for not only average conditions, but also extremes. Thus, producers should know the extent of their current drought conditions and what the expectations are for the coming week, month and season. A good knowledge of your location's climate will be indispensable in a successful drought mitigation effort. Your plan should help your operation outlast the extremes of climate. Here are some ideas on water, land, and crop management for you to consider while creating your drought plan:

Features Current Features Archive Features NRCS Earth Team Volunteers ... Publications Snow Survey, Water Supply Forecasting, and Drought Monitoring Conserving and managing scarce water supplies is a priority in many parts of the country. In the West, most of the available water comes from melting mountain snowpack. Irrigation water management is critical to achieving the most efficient use of this valuable and limited resource. NRCS continuously monitors mountain snowpack and climate using the 650 station SNOTEL (SNOwpack TELemetry) network to forecast water supplies. Monitoring soil moisture and assessing drought risk are NRCS activities supported by using climate information collected by the expanding NRCS SCAN (Soil Climate Analysis Network) comprised of 49 stations in 32 states. A full spectrum of water and climate information is available from the National Water and Climate Center webpage , including near real-time SNOTEL and SCAN climate information, water supply forecasts , state climate maps, historical digital datasets, and climate summaries. NRCS snow surveyors measure mountain snowpack and forecast seasonal runoff in streams and rivers. This information is used to make sound water management decisions.

Search 2. Soil and Water Management Alongside the difficulties associated with a transitional period, one of the major reasons of low agricultural productivity is poor natural resource management. In the past, the use of natural resources was mainly focused on rather short-term economic developments, which contributed to serious environmental disasters that continue to have an impact on current economic growth. Therefore, in Central Asia and the Caucasus, there are critical problems common to the efficient management of water and land. These problems include: allocation and rational use of natural resources, deficiencies in available technologies and their adoption due to poor knowledge dissemination, insufficient financial, institutional and policy support. Efficient water use is the main challenge in CAC region In addition, agrarian reforms and attention to socio-economic problems have progressed at different rates in countries of the CAC region. Those countries that have moved ahead with de-collectivization and privatization of land are also encountering problems arising from the fragmentation of land, and the sharing of water, particularly the management of large-scale irrigation systems to meet the demands of various small scale farmers.

Water Management Water is a limited resource in Texas. During droughts, water supplies can become so depleted, cities are required to initiate rationing programs. Homeowners must learn to manage their lawn irrigation during the different stages of water rationing. Following is a list of rationing stages from the many different programs in use throughout the state. Each water district adopts a rationing policy based on it's individual situation. Most rationing programs, however, are very similar. Water Rationing Stages STAGE I Usage of water for outdoor purposes such as lawns, gardens, car washing, etc. will be restricted to one of the following: Alternate Day Use Customers with even-numbered addresses may water outdoors on even-numbered days and customers with odd-numbered addresses may water outdoors on odd-numbered days. (When there are no addresses, North and West sides of streets: even days; South and East sides of streets: odd days.) Restricted Hours of Use Outside watering is allowed daily only during periods defined by your water district. Every Five Day Use Customers whose addresses end in and 1 may use water outdoors on the 1st day of the month; 2 and 3 - on the 2nd; 4 and 5 - 3rd; 6 and 7 - 4th; 8 and 9 - 5th; and 1 - 6th.... and so on. The utility will provide a calendar noting the respective watering days and the order should remain consecutive as new months begin.
