This is most likely to occur in early or late season, or during periods of very hot weather in mid-season when crop water use of the potato crop drops in response to the very hot conditions. Over-irrigation uses more water and energy inputs and creates conditions more favorable for development of plant disease. On pivots with new sprinkler packages, or pivots new to your operation, take the time to walk the pivot, checking that the nozzle sizes correspond to sprinkler chart numbers. Incorrect nozzle size for the location occurs more frequently than you might expect. The time required to check will be well worth it if mistakes are discovered before the season starts, rather than noticing a bull's-eye pattern of over- and under-watering in a critical period in mid-summer.
