The system receives wide-area me- en teorological prediction data and sensors deployed within the agricultural production area collect local-area sensor data. A processor i f ) stores received data as historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and data from the sensors as historical local-area sensor data. GC ,-1 The processor determines a correlation between the historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and the historical local-area GO sensor data based on the historical wide-area meteorological prediction data and the historical local-area sensor data, and calculates a © .—.., prediction on water supply relative to water demand within the agricultural production area based on current wide-area meteorological GC prediction data, and the calculated correlation. The irrigation actuator is then controlled based on the prediction on water supply relative 1-1 c:::: , to water demand to define an amount of water to be used for irrigating the agricultural production area.
