- Intervention effect Irrigation improved simulated yield by at least 1000 kg ha-1 in half the years.
- Intervention effect Precision irrigation yielded slightly more than scheduled uniform irrigation.
- Association Topography most influenced spatial yield variability.
- Observation Largest yield improvements occurred on steep sideslopes and hilltops.
- Observation Irrigation returned economically in only three of 28 years.
- Association High capital costs were the leading constraint on economic feasibility.
