Abstract

Water management is a strategic activity for farmers who have to find the optimal trade off between water saving and highquality production, especially during summer, when crop water requirements increase. Hydrotech project aims to supportfarmers to define and apply a sustainable and effective irrigation strategy based on real crop water requirements and waterresource availability. Hydrotech was carried out by a local consortium of private ICT SME (Sysman Progetti & Servizi) andResearch institutions (CIHEAM-IAMB, CNR-ISPA) in order to develop an ICT solution focused on precision farming andirrigation support. The Hydrotech-system performances were presented in collaboration with ASSOCODIPUGLIA in theframework of the Interreg IRMA project. Test results on peach crops have shown a potential water saving of 15% with aresulting reduction of water losses due to deep percolation and a correspondent increase in the water use efficiency.
