Sustainable Irrigation: Preventing Flood Irrigation and Preserving Resources
The project significantly impacts the agricultural sector by promoting sustainable water practices and improving water management in water-scarce areas. In countries like Pakistan, where freshwater sources are rapidly depleting alongside the agricultural sector’s exponential growth, adopting prescribed irrigation systems can be beneficial for both farmers and the economy. The use of sprinklers and drippers enhances working conditions for farmers and gardeners, allowing for more effective irrigation with minimal effort compared to traditional methods. Additionally, plant-related applications such as the “Plant App” and “PlantParent App” empower users to understand the key factors influencing optimal plant growth, improving plant health, reducing damage from over-watering, and enhancing crop yields. The project also supports biodiversity by emphasizing the specific floral needs of different plants based on their type and geographical conditions, thereby fostering the growth of diverse species and nurturing local ecosystems.
