Abstract

An irrigation system was developed for infiltration studies that
utilized overflow controls to maintain nearly constant inflow into
irrigation furrows. Furrow outflow was measured with HS flumes
equipped with water-level recorders. Data were easily and rapidly
converted to infiltration rates and cumulative infiltration by a
computer.
