Development of a new localised irrigation system with the capacity to sustainably inhibit the actions of insects and rodents that prevent the controlled application of water and nutrients.
The PROTECTDRIP project is aimed at promoting an even more sustainable agriculture, as it is born with an awareness of the natural environment.
The main objective of AZUD, through this project, is to develop a new micro-irrigation technology that integrates natural repellent defence systems against external agents such as insects and rodents, in order to maximise the good use of water for irrigation.
PROTECTDRIP allows a new challenge to be solved in a highly sustainable and environmentally friendly way, guaranteeing the optimisation of water use and nutrient application in agriculture.
Jointly with AZUD, they participate in the PROTECTDRIP project:
The PROTECTDRIP project (RTC-2017-5894-2) is funded by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities – State Research Agency and co-financed by the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), within the call RETOS-COLABORACIÓN 2017 that supports projects in cooperation between companies and research organisations, whose objective is to promote Technological Development, Innovation and quality Research.
