Digital Irrigation Management for Nitrate Control and Improved Water Productivity

Tue 28 Oct | 16:30 - 17:15

Irrigated agriculture must become more sustainable in the face of water scarcity and climate change. Using digital technology (sensors, AI, and predictive models), irrigation and fertilization are optimized, saving water and energy. These systems monitor soil and crops in real time, adjusting resources with precision. They also enable the management of large irrigation areas, applying strategies such as biostimulants for crops with less water. AI helps reduce fertilizer use, making agriculture more efficient and environmentally compatible.
