Concerned about the effects of Climate Change on farms? Worried about the impact of droughts? Interested in the link between Precision Farming and Irrigation? |
Climate change is bringing new challenges to farmers every season. With drought and extreme heats in the summer, farmers need to find a new way to precisely manage the irrigation of their land. Oliver Jerphagnon, CEO of PowWow Energy, presents the results of a three-year trial during the recent drought in California; the trial has showcased the importance of water efficiency, as the irrigation requirements for shallow root crops and perineal crops differ affecting the health of the plants. PowWow’s trial also leveraged machined learning to optimise irrigation for improve water use. Join the session this March to hear how remote sensing via aerial images and pump energy meters lead to an increase of 9% in water efficiency. |
