Description

In 2001, the SURDEV software suite was created through a collaboration among the International Institute for Land Reclamation and Improvement (ILRI), Wageningen Environmental Research, and the Institute of Land and Water Management of the Catholic University of Leuven (ILWM) in Belgium. This suite includes three specialized programs: BASDEV, designed for level basins; BORDEV, tailored for sloping borders; and FURDEV, which focuses on graded furrows. Surface irrigation utilizes the force of gravity to effectively distribute water across agricultural fields. As gravity pulls the water, it traverses the fields from one end to another, allowing it to seep into the soil during its flow. Among the various surface irrigation methods, the most prevalent include level basins (which may or may not have level furrows), sloping borders, and sloping furrows, all aimed at efficiently delivering water. The primary goal of these irrigation techniques is to ensure that crops receive water in precise amounts, at optimal times, and in a consistent manner, which ultimately fosters a uniform crop growth while minimizing water wastage. Furthermore, the careful application of these practices can lead to improved agricultural productivity and sustainability.

Description

The city covers more than half of the expenses, allowing residents to access the $500 program for just around $175 for systems with up to 6 zones, with a slight increase in cost for larger setups. So, how does this initiative function? Initially, we conduct a comprehensive assessment of the irrigation system through a "Simple Yard Audit" and subsequently replace the outdated controller with a Hunter Industries HydrawiseTM SMART weather-based controller, which is tailored to adjust according to the forecast from a virtual weather station we set up for them. Afterward, we modify the runtime settings based on the insights gathered from the audit. We then provide residents with training on how to use the HydrawiseTM controller app on their smartphones while also offering key recommendations for their landscaping needs. To wrap up, we send out a detailed report that outlines our suggestions and compares the residents' prior irrigation water usage with the anticipated savings facilitated by the SIP, ensuring they understand the benefits of the program. This comprehensive approach not only enhances water efficiency but also empowers residents with knowledge about their irrigation systems.
