Zusammenfassung:Effective rainfall (ER) is the portion of total rainfall that plants use to help meet their consumptive water requirements, and is an important component of water resource budgeting for irrigation. The USDA's Technical Release no. 21 (TR-21) is used to predict ER and irrigation requirements for south Florida citrus, but its accuracy is in question due to high-intensity rainfall, poorly drained soils, and partial irrigation coverage in microirrigated orchards.
