Automatic irrigation management for an efficient agriculture- Automatic irrigation steering
Project
Project code: EIP-Agri-BR-2021-LPTPPG
Contract period: 01.01.2021
- 31.12.2023
Budget: 498,792 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
Keywords: farming practice/activity, plant production and horticulture, water
To increase and secure the harvests, the amount of needed water rises up simultaneously. At the same time regional water resources are rare and water shortage is a growing problem. To ensure a responsible water use technical systems support a smart irrigation management. The project aims to combine existing decision-supporting-systems to optimize the irrigation management. The software Irrigama Steering and the irrigation recommendation will be integrated in the Raindancer-App, that regulates technically the irrigation infrastructure.
