Pilots

GEORGIA’s Pilots cover multiple crops, production types (conventional, intensive, agroecology and organic) and geographical regions. Advanced irrigation technologies, practices and solutions are tested, validated and demonstrated—starting with small farms and scaling up to medium farms, large private plantations, and a Greek island known for limited water resources. One of the pilot activities focuses on a full region where municipal waste is recycled for irrigation purposes, showcasing sustainable water use across varying landscapes and production scales. Beyond technological and economic-business validation, the pilots involve local farmers and citizens to incorporate various technologies and provide valuable feedback on the usability and agronomical value of the GEORGIA tools.
