No one has to tell Colquitt County peanut producers about how dry it\u00a0is.\u00a0 As area peanuts are reaching peak water use, depending on planting date, growers need to know how much water to apply or conserve water if they limited amounts.\u00a0 Below are a few comments from the UGA Peanut folks on the current irrigation situation in peanuts.<\/p>\n

The first week of August (if the peanuts were planted by May 1), is the peak of the water use curve, requiring about 2.1 inches per week.\u00a0 The good news is that we\u2019re about to move past the peak water use period and start requiring less water.\u00a0 If your peanuts were delayed by 2-4 weeks they will move into the highest water used period soon.\u00a0 Please see the figure below for the ranges of peanuts planted from late April (yellow) and peanuts planted in middle May (blue).\u00a0 Hopefully we\u2019ll begin to pick up some more rainfall to help with these water requirements.<\/p>\n
