THE FUSE

Effective water management is critical for maximizing crop yield and maintaining soil health on a one-hectare farm. Small-scale farms face unique challenges, including limited water supply, seasonal rainfall variability, and the need to optimize irrigation efficiency. Implementing proper water management practices ensures that crops receive sufficient moisture while reducing waste, lowering costs, and preserving local water resources. Understanding your farm’s soil type, crop requirements, and climate is the first step in designing an efficient irrigation system.
