On-Farm Water Conservation
On-farm water conservation techniques focus on reducing water waste and optimizing water use in agricultural and horticultural practices. Given the increasing pressure on freshwater resources, efficient water management is essential for maintaining crop production and ensuring sustainable farming. Techniques such as drip irrigation, mulching, rainwater harvesting, and the use of drought-resistant crop varieties are all part of a comprehensive approach to water conservation. These practices not only conserve water but also help maintain soil health and reduce the risk of crop diseases. On-farm water conservation is critical in regions experiencing water scarcity, as it supports the viability of agricultural operations and helps mitigate the effects of climate change.
