Customized irrigation advice for farmers on sandy and loss soil

Source: Customized irrigation advice for farmers on sandy and loss soil

The majority (more than 95%) of Dutch farmers irrigate their crops based on experience and intuition instead of in a data-driven manner. This leads to unnecessary over- and under irrigation which results in productivity loss and in water usage which is too high. In this project Agurotech and Wageningen University & Research collaborated to share technology (soil moisture sensors) and crop- and soil models with Dutch farmers on sandy and loss soils.
