This publication summarizes a study whose objectives were to determine the amount of residential irrigation water use in central Florida, and to evaluate if combinations of irrigation scheduling and landscape/irrigation design could reduce irrigation water application. Written by Melissa B. Haley, Michael D. Dukes, Bernard Cardenas, Grady L. Miller, and Dorota Z. Haman, and published by the UF/IFAS Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering, revised September 2024.
