Irrigation Management
Plantsystems irrigation and water management services have been developed to provide excellent crop performance together with full justification and economy of water use. In addition we believe the services described will generate the infornmation required by the Environment Agency (EA) and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) as part of a licence application or licence defence.
The environmental regulators in Britain have the duty to promote both the protection of the water environment and to encourage the efficient use of water resources. It is part of the application for abstraction authorisation to justify the amount and periods of use. In addition, farmers are required to report storage, use and discharge of water, which will be related with the long term environmental monitoring in the catchment. Therefore in order to fulfil these requirements, farmers are expected to put enough effort into effective management of water and pursuing water efficiency.
The EU Water Framework Directive is the piece of legislation which gives attention to the conservation of water and the avoidance of diffuse pollution.
