The sustainability challenge: Meeting the needs of the water-energy nexus
In 2009 Davos World Economic Forum reported that the world is quickly heading towards “water bankruptcy.” As global population soars, food, energy and freshwater are becoming increasingly scarce. Water, whether for potable or industrial use, is limited, and some supplies are not useable. The need for water in the developed world is high. Two-thirds of all the water consumed is used ...

Irrigation water pricing policy for water demand and environmental management: a case study in the Weihe River basin
Irrigated agricultural production is the backbone of the Chinese agricultural sector, but the increasing demand for irrigation water, its inefficient utilization and overuse of chemical inputs, accompanied by the short supply of water resources have endangered the nation's agricultural and environmental sustainability. The Chinese government has proposed a water pricing policy with the ...

Manage your Pivot Remotely with FieldNET
Zimmatic Controllers – The Only Control Panel Compatible with Fieldnet Control panels have always been used on pivot sprinklers. New smart control panels, however, are revolutionizing pivot irrigation. These devices reduce water consumption and lead to savings in time and labour. Zimmatic control panels have everything for the grower who is ready to take complete control of their ...

Arsenic concentrations in irrigation water, soil and selected vegetables in Bangladesh
The effect of Arsenic (As) concentration in irrigation water on As accumulation in six selected vegetables grown during the dry season (December-May) in Bangladesh has been assessed. Three field sites were selected for the assessment, which included two As affected areas (Chandpur and Narayanganj) and one unaffected area (Bogra). The As concentrations in edible parts of the selected vegetables ...

Special features of drip-sprinkler irrigation technology
Irrigation techniques and technology based on principle of regular accumulation of moisture in active layer (surface irrigation, regular sprinkler irrigation) are most common in science and in practice. More progressive is principle of non-stop water supply of plants and soil in conformity to their water consumption. Drip irrigation and impulse sprinkling are based on this principle. The main ...

Participative modelling to help collective decision-making in water allocation and nitrogen pollution: application to the case of the Aveyron-Lere Basin
The aim of this study is to develop simplified tools and methods in collaboration with local stakeholders to facilitate collective decision-making. The project is based on a series of experiments carried out between farmers and environmental officers and researchers (Aquae Project)1 on the Aveyron-Lere catchment area. Within this framework, a model of the catchment area was constructed to examine ...

Soil Sensors: The Key to Efficient and Sustainable Agricultural Management
Abstract:As the global population continues to grow and resources become increasingly strained, the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural production are becoming increasingly important. Soil sensors play a vital role in this process, providing real-time information on soil conditions to help farmers manage and improve their fields more effectively.Advantages of soil sensors:First, improve ...

Soil and water: towards a larger-scale perspective of their relations
Land use changes over time have altered relations between soils and water cycles throughout Europe. There are regions where forests were cut for agriculture or herding, or for industrial, mining, and/or railroad use. Soils were lost, through mud floods, and the water cycles changed so that their present status is one of badlands and/or desert-like areas. Early stages in the path to degradation ...
