Irrigation: Yesterday, today and tomorrow
During the last 75 years, irrigation has evolved tremendously. From loss insurance due to droughts to sowing protection against freezing, all systems were portable until 1970. After the pipe systems, that had to be moved manually, came what was considered as the revelation of the time for large surface fields: mobile cannons pulled by hose reels.
Today's agricultural producers must take into account the « WEE » :
Reduce WATER consumption
Reduce ENERGY consumption (i.e. fossil fuel)
Protect the ENVIRONMENT by limiting fertilizer run-offs
Today’s modern irrigation systems must use low pressure equipment that allows a greater uniform distribution of water and a higher efficiency all the while improving yields. Savings are the thus obtained.
