Strategies include drought resistant crop varieties that can withstand shifting climate conditions, more
efficient irrigation technologies and improved crop storage.
He is advocating the introduction of
drip irrigation technology on farms because it best ensures water and fertilizer efficiency on farms.
Smart irrigation technology could cut that in half while still producing the same amount of crops and livestock — and save energy in the process.
The discovery is important, Li said, because it helps to resolve a long - running debate over
how irrigation technologies first made their way into this arid corner of China's Xinjiang region.
Based on his research at MGK, Li argues that
early irrigation technologies also followed this same route, passing from one pastoral group to another over thousands of years.
By Heather Cooley, Director of the Pacific Institute Water Program July 29, 2014 California farmers have made great progress in updating and
modernizing irrigation technologies and practices.
Reduce outdoor water efficiency through drought - tolerant landscape design and improved irrigation technologies
Yalumba is enforcing a change in
the irrigation technology used by its growers from broadacre systems, which provide water to large swathes of land, to microsystems, which target specific areas, ensuring each drop of water counts.
«The irrigation system at MGK4 suggests that, although the Han Dynasty brought sophisticated
irrigation technology to Xinjiang, this set of technology did not replace the irrigation technology that appeared earlier in Xinjiang,» Li said.
Some irrigation technologies are much more efficient than others.
Our water projects use these approaches by, for example, promoting the adoption of water - efficient
irrigation technology or improving the quality of household tap water in underserved regions.
As I possess a sound theoretical know - how of the agricultural science and
irrigation technologies, I aspire to be a part of a leading irrigation design organization as an irrigation design engineer.
