To advance our understanding, and to help build sutainable food systems by connecting the sciences of agroecology and water management.
More services
We believe that by integrating multiservice irrigation and embracing ecosystemic services, farmers can unlock a new level of robustness and resilience.
More DIY water management tools
We believe that offering more DIY management tools is a way to empower farmers and provide them with more control to optimize their irrigation operations and respond to challenges in real-time.
More perspectives on agroecological systems
We believe that the agroecological principles are universal but practices are local. We study existing agroecological systems to better understand their needs and to inform science and policy makers. Connecting people across networks is crucial to achieve this.
