Produktbeschreibung
In today's world, agriculture is no longer just a traditional practice for food production; it has become a technology-driven industry. With growing challenges such as climate change, population growth, and unsustainable water use, effective management of water resources is more critical than ever. As agriculture consumes around 70% of global freshwater, adopting modern irrigation technologies is essential. This book offers a comprehensive guide to modern irrigation systems, exploring their evolution, benefits, and challenges. It begins with an overview of traditional and advanced methods, including surface and subsurface drip irrigation, highlighting improvements in water efficiency, crop yield, fertigation, weed control, labor reduction, and energy savings, as well as potential limitations. The book then examines smart irrigation, showing how sensors, IoT, artificial intelligence, and data analytics enable real-time, adaptive, and optimized decision-making. Market trends, technological drivers, and challenges such as high costs and infrastructure limitations are also discussed. Finally, it delves into precision irrigation strategies.
