Irrigation design and management
Integrated water management
Smart irrigation design and precise watering management are two key pillars to maximize
tree growth while minimizing water consumption.
We work with a range of partners to bring you technical solutions tailored to your plantation project, taking into account the tree species, vegetation cover, soil characteristics and water quality.
Smart irrigation design
- Our technical partners can propose a range of customized solutions adapted to your requirements, based on the tree population, soil type, rainfall patterns, environmental characteristics, and water availability at your project site.
- Given the scarcity and salinity of many water sources in Saudi Arabia, a careful analysis of water quality will determine the type of system, irrigation layout, and water treatment needs. Combined with timers or moisture sensors, the irrigation system can automate watering schedules to eliminate the guesswork and reduce staffing needs.
Precise watering management
- Watering management should be integrated with other tree maintenance practices to protect tree health and promote maximum growth. This is particularly true of the fertilization process, as the irrigation system can serve to optimize nutrient delivery.
- Automated monitoring of soil moisture and manual inspection of trees provide important information for adjusting for adjusting the irrigation frequency and timing. Periodic inspection of irrigation components is essential for resolving clogs and leaks.
