• Water calibration per furrow was done by using 200 liter drum; which was filled and poured in furrow. The furrow was divided in three portions and was filled with measured water up to required level and it was found that one furrow was filled with 600 liters of water.
• Water used: 18TX2F=36X600=21600 liters/Acre.
