Abstract
|
Digital applications for improving efficiency and for monitoring agricultural water use play an increasing role in the debate on small-scale irrigation in international cooperation. On the one hand, technical processes for minimizing irrigation water and reducing the use of fertilizers as well as for energy savings in irrigation technology can be supported. On the other hand, apps can often facilitate management processes and the monitoring of irrigation and operating systems. However, up to now, digital applications that specifically target small-scale irrigation have only been used sporadically and pilot-like in GIZ projects. As part of a market analysis, this report is investigating the potential of digital applications for small-scale irrigation. The aim is to identify and structure existing experiences and, based on current developments and challenges, to define further requirements for digital applications in this area.
