Abstract

Continued irrigated production in the Oklahoma Panhandle is threatened by the declining groundwater supply and increasing fuel costs. A plant growth model and optimal control theory techniques were used to derive irrigation strategies which, when compared with contemporary irrigation practices, reduce water and energy use while maintaining producer net returns.
