Abstract: A fluid source management system (100) comprising a structure (101) that supports one or more fluid sources (103), sensors (102) that determine the fluid state of the fluid sources (103), at least one common reservoir (108) for storing the fluid, tubing (104) connecting the fluid sources (103) to the common fluid reservoir (108) and a controller (105) that controls the opening and closing of the tubing (104) based upon the fluid state of the fluid sources (103).
