The utilization of tools installed in the field to reduce the use of water. In particular, one meteo station and 5 “Diviner” are used. “Diviner” is a tool which permit, through a computer linked to the sensors in the soil, to measure the soil moisture. The decision to irrigate is based on data obtained from […]

Storage reservoirs filled with groundwater. Wells are in an alluvial riparian aquifer with around 20 m of maximum depth. The reservoirs are at around 80 m and 150 m over the riverbed (river Acri). Water is always present in the aquifer, but pumping rates should be moderate Drip irrigation with double dripline.
