The efficiency of agricultural inputs may be reduced by ignoring the inherent variability in soil texture and the non-uniformity of the input's application. This paper focuses on variable-rate irrigation, which is performed via subdivision of the spatially variable field area into a controlled...

The optimal long-run fertilisation and irrigation of a perennial crop is approached via two stochastic dynamic optimisation models. The first model assumes that the ex-post level of the state variable--leaf nitrogen (LN)--is known with certainty. The second model assumes that the level of leaf...
