Water conservation is a key concern when thinking about the best way to irrigate large areas of land. Wasting significant amounts of water is not only bad for the environment but is also inefficient for agricultural production. Centre pivot irrigation systems are used for their efficiency and coupled with Hydrosmart can save water while also delivering excellent results.
Read on to find out how these systems can complement each other for improved water conservation and efficient irrigation.
Sustainable Irrigation
The capacity of a centre pivot irrigation system to efficiently irrigate huge expanses of land with minimum labour is its greatest benefit. Depending on the size of the system, it can cover a circular or semi-circular region of several acres to several hundred acres. The pivot arm’s rotation ensures consistent water distribution, guaranteeing that crops receive appropriate moisture for growth.
Sensors and control systems that monitor soil moisture levels and weather conditions are common features of centre pivot irrigators. This aids in irrigation scheduling optimisation and prevents overwatering or underwatering. Furthermore, certain modern systems may be operated and monitored remotely using computer software or mobile applications.
Complemented by Hydrosmart
Used in conjunction with Hydrosmart, the pivot irrigation system delivers a range of water conservation benefits. Hydrosmart ensures that only high-quality, desalinated and descaled water flowers through the pivot irrigation system, thus allowing it to operate at maximum efficiency and with less downtime for the maintenance associated with damage from hard water and saline water.
