See More information on Training Course page.
Work continues on the major development of this website to ultimately provide a resource-rich , highly interactive 'destination location' for timely and provocative information about water sustainability in British Columbia. The following Communities of Interst are being developed:
In addition, an Irrigation Calculator has just begun development, patterned after the IIABC's Turf & Landscape Irrigation Scheduling Calculator. This is all possible through a grant from the National water Supply Expansion Program and several organizations. Find out more on www.waterbucket.ca
This manual, prepared by the BC Ministry of Agriculture and Lands, is available from the IIABC.
The manual provides useful information on agricultural irrigation management, operation and scheduling of sprinkler and trickle/drip irrigation systems.
Worksheets used to determine peak flow rates, annual water requirement and system operation for developing an Environmental Farm Plan in British Columbia are included in the manual.

IIABC Launches Landscape Irrigation Scheduling Calculator |
The IIABC Landscape Irrigation Scheduling Calculator is a new addition to the IIABC website. The calculator makes it easier for landscape irrigators to determine an effective schedule that takes into account time of year, landscape plant, soil, site parameters and irrigation system performance. The calculator can be found under the Irrigation Scheduling Tab along with a guide for its use.
