Introduction

Estimate irrigation water volume from field area and application depth in millimetres.

Formula

Water volume is field area times irrigation depth (converted to consistent length units).

V=AdV = A \cdot d
  • A Field area
  • d Irrigation depth
  • V Water volume

Step-by-step

  1. Enter field area and unit.
  2. Enter irrigation depth in millimetres.
  3. Read volume in cubic metres and litres.

Worked example

1 ha with 25 mm depth needs 250 m³ (250,000 L) of water.

Use cases

  • Size pumps and tanks for a single irrigation
  • Plan water budgets for a growing season event
  • Convert mm of water to cubic metres and litres

Frequently asked questions

Does this include efficiency losses?

No. It is the net water depth on the field. Increase the result for conveyance or sprinkler losses.
