The serious challenge to mankind in the 21st century is the lack of fresh water.
Climate change, Pollution, and Population growth, are all accelerating, and the
cumulative effect would be to bring about drastic decline in availability of water
in the coming years. Agriculture alone
consumes 60% of today’s fresh water and it is imperative that saving of water should
be a paramount importance. The answer
to wastage of water in agriculture is Micro Irrigation.
Nagarjuna Micro Irrigation business was started in the year 1993 to address the
irrigation problems of farmers living in water and energy scarce regions and also
in regions where water, energy and agricultural input (labor, nutrition and plant
protection) supplies are expensive. Since then, Nagarjuna has accumulated a depth
of agronomic knowledge that enables it to respond to the specific needs of a crop
and the grower with exactly the right product and service solution. |
