Irrigation has been one of the fundamental pillars of growing crops. The Monteverde Farm has been equipped with an efficient irrigation system in the use of available water resources, making use of the necessary technologies to incur the lowest possible water and energy consumption, guaranteeing the optimal operation and development of the crop.
The farm has opted for the use of materials and resources in irrigation facilities that allow us to be at the forefront of existing technology with responsible energy consumption. Given the current situation and future outlook in which water resources are increasingly limited, a clear compromise has been established between efficiency in the use of water and the incorporation of the latest technologies in irrigation
systems. For this reason, at Finca Monteverde, the installation of automated
irrigation pipes with self-compensating drippers, ensuring an exact distribution of water in the crop has been encouraged. In this way, the rational and effective use of water resources is guaranteed, minimizing energy
consumption. Another of the processes to take into account has been the earthwork, due to the fact that the terrain was modelled with the most advanced and up-to-date machinery equipped with 3D GPS, technology that has allowed, for better use of existing machines and
better land management.
