In an olive irrigation experiment an extreme case of 75% water was saved. In a
lemon orchard 58% water was saved, as compared to the extension service
recommendations. In a tomato irrigation experiment we saved 24% water,
compared to the best irrigation practiced today, based on previous
experiments. A 30% saving of water, without loss of yield, and sometimes an
increase in yield, is a conservative estimate of the water that can be saved.
