Irrigation Management Survey

The Precision Agriculture Lab at the UME is conducting a survey of all farmers in Maryland on irrigation management practices and expertise. We are asking for your help with an important survey on irrigation management practices and knowledge to as many farmers in Maryland as  possible, regardless of whether they currently irrigate or not. This survey will help to collect data to better address the need in the state and develop irrigation management resources. We would sincerely appreciate your assistance in this endeavor by completing or distributing this survey: Irrigation Management Survey. The survey is accessible on a smartphone, tablet, or computer. 

This survey is meant for anyone who grows a crop of any kind in Maryland, including but not limited to vegetables, grains, flowers, nursery plants, vineyards, and orchard fruits. All survey participants must be at least 18 years old and operate in the state. We anticipate the survey will take 10 minutes or less to complete. 

All responses to this survey will be anonymous; no identifying information will be collected or connected to participant responses.

Thank you again for your assistance with developing applicable and useful extension resources to better serve farmers in Maryland! 

Any questions or comments can be directed to Dr. Hemendra Kumar (hemendra@umd.edu) or Dr. Cara Peterson (cmpeters@umd.edu) of the Precision Agriculture Lab at University of Maryland Extension. 

We would greatly appreciate your support in completing the survey or sending the survey link to as many farmers as possible who fit this criteria.
