Abstract

Sustainable irrigation should rely on the efficient use of water while avoiding soil degradation. To this end, decision tools for assessing best management practices are necessary. There is, however, little evidence of efficient tools to assess best irrigation practices at regional scale taking into account water quality to avoid soil degradation and negative impacts on crop yields. The objective of this work was the performance of a GIS-based decision tool to assess best irrigation management practices aimed at reducing the negative effect of salts in irrigation water in olive orchards. The approach in this tool involved first the blending of two sources of available waters, surface and underground, and when necessary, the application of leaching fractions (LF). We tested this tool in the province of Jaen (south Spain) as representative area of olive cultivation in Mediterranean environments.
