Quantify impacts of deficit irrigation treatments on pistachio yield and quality over multiple years

This project is a part of multiple projects with an aim to increase resiliency of the US pistachio industry under changing climate. Our focus is to provide growers with updated and reliable deficit irrigation management strategies without impacting yield. We plan to develop deficit strategies that are based on actual water status information and specific phenological stages
