Orchard Land-Water Allocation Optimization

Land-Water-Crop Allocation Explorer

Land–Water–Crop Allocation Explorer

Companion tool for Linker & Kisekka — orchard vs. annual-crop land and water allocation under water constraints. Each dot below is one orchard-area / canopy-PAR / crop-rotation combination; click a dot to see the year-by-year crop, water and income detail.

X: max–min net income over the 10-year horizon (fluctuation). Y: average annual net income. Color = % intercepted PAR. Size = orchard area (% of total land). Outlined dot = highest-income solution for that orchard size.

Select an orchard type and click a point on the left to see the detailed year-by-year field allocation.
