Irrigation is crucial in optimizing crop growth, nutrient uptake, and overall plant health.

In this part one of a two-part episode, we will explore the agronomic value of proper irrigation.

In this first half of the Yara Crop Nutrition Podcast, we are joined by irrigation experts Guillermo Valenzuela, VP of Sales and Marketing at WiseConn, and Craig Hornung, Director of Technical Services at AC-Foods, to discuss the vital role of water management in agriculture. The conversation highlights how proper irrigation not only boosts crop growth and nutrient uptake but also enhances sustainability and efficiency in farming. We examine the evolution of irrigation techniques and how advancements in technology, such as sensors, are helping growers manage water with greater precision. The discussion also touches on California’s SGMA legislation and its implications for water use in agriculture.
