Collaborative efforts by Gardin Agritech and Bayer Crop Science
The growing concern over water scarcity in southern European regions due to shifting climate patterns poses significant challenges for agricultural activities. In response to these challenges, Gardin Agritech and Bayer Crop Science have decided to partner – utilising Gardin’s advanced phenotyping technologies, the collaboration aims to optimize water management strategies while maintaining crop productivity in protected cultivation under plastic cover. The partnership, which started in the summer of 2023, already produced striking results. 25% of water saved whilst keeping Bayers pepper yields high!
The collaboration between Gardin Agritech and Bayer Crop Science represents a significant step forward in addressing water scarcity challenges in agriculture. Through the integration of advanced technologies and scientific expertise, they are paving the way for a more water-efficient and resilient agricultural sector, capable of meeting the demands of a changing climate while safeguarding food security for future generations.
