Water: The Importance of Conscious Use in Agribusiness

According to data from EMBRAPA, agriculture accounts for 70% of global freshwater consumption, and in Brazil, this number rises to 72%. A large portion of rural properties uses rainwater, which is returned to nature clean through natural processes such as evaporation, transpiration, and soil infiltration. Plants have different water needs, and some require more than others at various stages of growth. Lack of water during the early stages of plant development can destroy entire crops and even ecosystems, highlighting the importance of proper management and planning. River pollution and the destruction of water springs are ongoing problems. Combined with climatic factors, they result in serious challenges for agricultural production. Fortunately, the advancement of scientific knowledge over the years has brought numerous benefits in terms of preserving this vital and essential resource. Certain technological and infrastructure measures can and should be adopted to prevent water loss during its transport and distribution in agricultural areas.


Check out some optimization practices:

Water Storage: involves building reservoirs to store water for irrigation and, when possible, for other purposes as well.
The Use of Mulch (Crop Residues): can help conserve moisture in the soil.
Drip Irrigation: this technique uses drippers instead of continuous flow and can save up to 50% of water while delivering the same results.
Responsible Irrigation: a technique that has been improved over time and now uses precision systems: water is dripped at the right time, place, and amount to meet the plant’s development needs.
