The target audiences for this publication are irrigation districts and others who want to improve measurement accuracy for irrigation flow rates and volumetric deliveries. The focus of this publication is on turnouts (deliveries or offtakes) to fields or to relatively small groups of fields, as opposed to flow measurement on large canals. This report is an update of the September 2017 report, which focused on SBX7-7. 43 pg plus attachments.
