Netafim Irrigation, Inc. is partnering with agricultural growers in Madera County, California, to transition 215 acres from flood to subsurface drip irrigation to address water scarcity exacerbated by climate change. The new drip system will efficiently irrigate a crop rotation of tomatoes and wheat, replacing high water-use crops like cotton and wheat under less efficient flood irrigation. This project will significantly reduce groundwater withdrawals while improving water delivery precision. The shift aligns with sustainable agricultural practices, supporting both local ecosystems and the resilience of California’s critical agricultural sector amidst increasing climate variability.
