Water Program: Supporting Sustainable Agriculture 🌱 Applications Open as of April 3, 2023 The government of Alberta is proud to introduce the Water Program, aimed at enhancing agricultural water management for Alberta's primary producers. This initiative supports the adoption of better water management practices, crucial for water quality, climate adaptation, and efficient resource use. Program Streams: On-Farm Irrigation: Enhance your irrigation systems for improved efficiency. On-Farm Water Supply: Develop reliable water sources with projects like dugouts, dams, and springs. Key Details: Pre-consultation Required: Engage with an Agriculture and Irrigation Water Specialist before planning. Funding Opportunities: Up to $30,000 for irrigation projects and $35,000 for water supply projects, subject to eligibility and program limits. 📅 Act now to secure your spot and contribute to a sustainable agricultural future: https://lnkd.in/gXXeQsN9 #InvestOlds #WaterManagement #SustainableAgriculture #AlbertaFarming #FarmingGrant #AgBusiness #AgSupport #TownOfOlds #OldsAB #InvestOlds Town of Olds

We always knew drip irrigation benefits the environment - Now we can back it up with data Measuring our products’ environmental impact is part of our commitment to sustainability. This is the reason we’re investing in LCAs; rigorous Life Cycle Assessment studies that assess the environmental impact of our products and processes. Our first LCA study with corn shows that compared to flood and sprinklers, corn irrigated by drip demonstrates a higher yield, required significantly less fertilizer, and resulted in reduced carbon emissions.

Meet Peter Oppong, a resilient cocoa farmer from Ghana who transformed adversity into innovation. Faced with climate challenges, he adopted solar-powered irrigation, securing his cocoa enterprise and futureproofing it against climate variability. His success underscores the importance of scaling initiatives that promote efficient resource use and responsible farming practices. Read more about Peter's journey and how organizations like the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) play a crucial role in supporting farmers like him through innovative solutions. 🌍🌱 https://lnkd.in/e4U3RqmF #AgriculturalInnovation #OneCGIAR

Schematic of a Minimum Liquid Discharge (MLD) System for a greenhouse or indoor farm. Irrigation drainage is filtered, disinfected, and reused. Rainwater and/or HVAC condensate is captured, disinfected, and re-used. These alternative near-pure water sources reduce the amount of water the facility needs to draw from the aquifer and reduces the amount of brine waste created by reverse osmosis (RO) purification of that source water. Purified water improves the number of cycles it can be reused for irrigation.

In arid regions, food production often relies on energy-intensive water pumping and irrigation, leading to high costs, increased carbon emissions and depleted natural water reserves, adding to the challenge of water scarcity. But an innovative solution could transform water provision in these areas: atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) using novel reticular materials, engineered with atomic precision. Developed by Atoco, this solution can work off-grid in the toughest environments and produces extremely pure water in areas with extremely low humidity.

"...regenerated wastewater can be used in agricultural irrigation, aquifer recharges, firefighting, industrial processes, and for irrigation of green areas. Reuse will avoid the net consumption of freshwater, reducing the environmental impact and generating cost savings associated with combating the problem of restoring water sources and contaminated soils." We encourage you to check out this short and informative piece on the power of the circular water economy model to alleviate water management stress! https://lnkd.in/gCjGnqr2 #abwastewater #ABAg #abwater #circulareconomy

According to statistics by The Guardian, there is a concerning projection that global water demand will outpace supply by a staggering 40% by the year 2030. To safeguard against the impending threat of water scarcity, strata communities have a vital role in adopting proactive water-saving measures. Implementing cutting-edge water-saving technologies such as rainwater harvesting, greywater recycling, and efficient irrigation systems can significantly contribute to water conservation.

Wienerberger provides creative, cost-effective solutions for infrastructure, renovation, and building that are also a significant contribution to sustainability. For example, the significance of effective water management is apparent in the agricultural sector as well as with relation to the groundwater table. The company has recognized this trend and is advancing water-saving technologies for effective irrigation. The drip irrigation pipe is one specific example of this. Furthermore, water utilities and technology providers across Europe, like Brabant Water N.V., one of the biggest water suppliers in the Netherlands, have teamed up with Pipelife, a Wienerberger company, to find and implement an innovative digital twin solution in response to challenges like rising pollution, aging infrastructure, and an increasing frequency of heatwaves.

Reuse and Recycling: Treated wastewater, often referred to as reclaimed or recycled water, can be reused for various purposes, including agricultural irrigation, industrial processes, landscape irrigation, and even replenishing groundwater supplies. This helps conserve freshwater resources and reduces environmental stress. #VanWykElectric #DataCenters #WaterManagement #WasteWater #Sustainability #Infrastructure #TechInnovation #ElectricalSolutions #ReliablePower #EfficientSystems #DigitalInfrastructure #CommunitySupport #PoweringTheFuture
