How much rain to fill Kansas wheat soil profile
Kansas wheat needs depend on soil texture and losses from runoff and evaporation. For loam to silty soils, eight inches of available water in four feet requires about 12 to 16 inches of rainfall in two-inch events over six weeks, assuming 75 percent infiltration and 0.15 to 0.5 inches evaporation per rain. Coarser soils need less water per depth. sandy loam may require about nine to twelve inches under similar evaporation.
