Irrigated woody crops continue to gain hectares of land in agriculture.
Woody trees, also called permanent crops, are produced over long periods of time and do not need to be transplanted after each harvest.
With intensive and super-intensive irrigation systems, it is possible to achieve higher yields and quality in a sustainable manner if resources are properly optimized.
What can you do to grow woody crops successfully?
The main productive limitation is the availability of water, as it is scarce in some areas and the irrigation design can be fundamental to cope with the water deficit.
Although there are crops that adapt better than others to rainfed conditions, the contribution depends on the variety, soil and phenological stage of each tree.
Therefore, it is essential to know and regulate the water and nutrient supply in order to carry out irrigation and fertilization strategies to obtain a higher yield and save water resources.
