Smart Water Farming
Save Water. Grow Smarter. Earn Better.
Traditional farming practices often lead to water overuse, soil depletion, and low returns. AGROFED is helping farmers transition to a better approach—crop scheduling and diversification—that conserves water and increases profitability.
What is Crop Scheduling?
Crop scheduling involves growing the right crop at the right time based on water availability, soil condition, and climate trends. It helps optimize water usage while ensuring a healthy, profitable harvest.
Why It Matters
Water Conservation
Reduced groundwater usage by aligning crops with rainfall and seasonal availability.
Higher Income
Switching to high-value, low-water crops during dry seasons boosts earnings.
Eco-Sustainability
Fewer chemical inputs and better water management lead to healthier soils and environment.
Farmer Empowerment
Farmers gain knowledge to make independent, informed decisions.
