A
Sustainable Farming Future
Innovators
and leaders in this emerging field work directly with
the farmers, listening to their needs and conducting extensive
field tests to better understand what they require. Since
a rural farmer’s plot in the developing world is
often an acre or smaller, technology is customized and
scaled to fit the land and designed to be easily expandable
as farm income grows and they purchase more farmland.
Updating older and outmoded inventions with new materials
can yield highly affordable irrigation technologies which
will be sustainable long into the future.
