In a cropped field, the following data are observed. Moisture content at field capacity (weight basis) = 36%, Current moisture content (weight basis) = 24%, Bulk density of soil = 1.5 Mg m-3, Effective root zone depth = 0.8 m, Conveyance efficiency = 80%, Application efficiency = 90%. To bring soil moisture content to field capacity, the depth of irrigation in mm will be
