CropManage: Smarter Irrigation and Nutrient Management for Leafy Green Growers

One of the leading resources available to California growers is CropManage, an online irrigation and nutrient management tool developed through the University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources program by irrigation and water management expert Michael Cahn.

CropManage was designed specifically to help leafy green growers make more informed decisions about irrigation scheduling and fertilizer applications. Using field-specific information, weather data, and crop growth models, the platform helps growers determine when and how much water and nutrients to apply throughout the growing season.

By combining university-backed science with real-world agricultural applications, CropManage empowers farmers to improve efficiency, lower input costs, and support long-term sustainability in specialty crop production.
