Abstract

Irrigation efficiency values were compared among those obtained in California by Vaux et al and these obtained by the author in Central zone of Chile. The definitive difference found is due to irrigation methodology used. These average irrigation efficiency in California is about 71% and the one obtained in Chile is 36.7%.
