Irrigation is now becoming more critical. Temperatures are high, and many areas are experiencing lower-than-normal rainfall. However, I do have some good news for you if you are looking for a source that has a lot of information about irrigation.

Lyndon Kelley is an Irrigation Educator for Purdue Extension and MSU Extension, and he maintains a webpage that contains a lot of information https://www.canr.msu.edu/irrigation/. Look under Specialty Crops Information (https://www.canr.msu.edu/irrigation/#specialty) for videos, bulletins, and other irrigation resources.
