- Intervention effect 250 m2 plots saved 3.1 cm irrigation water over 500 m2 plots in 2003–04
- Intervention effect 250 m2 plots saved 3.6 cm irrigation water over 500 m2 plots in 2004–05
- Intervention effect 250 m2 plots saved 6.0 cm irrigation water over 500 m2 plots in 2005–06
- Intervention effect Yield was higher in smaller plots when the same number of irrigations was applied
- Observation Soil moisture storage was higher in larger plots (5.8 cm/180 cm profile)
- Observation Irrigation water input was greater in larger plots
- Observation Soil moisture distribution along the plot length was uniform in smaller plots and less uniform in bigger plots
