Intermittent Irrigation Boosts Crop Yields, Conserves Water in Drought-Prone Regions
This study looked at a way to manage water in farming areas more efficiently. They focused on a method called intermittent irrigation that saves water. The researchers created a model to decide when and how much water to give to crops. They tested this model in Cihea, a place in Indonesia. By giving water every 3 days, they found that crop production improved. This approach helped the farmers get more crop per water used, making their irrigation system more modern and effective.
