Abstract: Systems, processes and methods for controlling the irrigation of wastewater to a vegetated land are provided. The process can include determining a drained upper limit (DUL)-related criterion of an irrigation zone of the vegetated land, and obtaining a soil water tension measurement indicative of the irrigation status in the irrigation zone. The soil water tension measurement can then be compared to the DUL-related criterion, and when the soil water tension measurement of the irrigation zone is equal to or above the DUL-related criterion, an irrigation event characterized by a given volume of wastewater and a given irrigation duration can be initiated to irrigate the irrigation zone. The process can also include implementing a predetermined irrigation protocol in accordance with a set of predetermined parameters to irrigate the irrigation zone during an irrigation event, the set of predetermined parameters including for instance a DUL-related criterion for the irrigation zone.
