Summary

Proper usage of irrigation performance indicators such as uniformity and efficiency require standardize definitions and equations, specification of vertical and horizontal boundaries, inclusion of all pertinent components, and accurate measurement and estimation of those components. The quantification of some critical components is a challenge, and errors always exist.
