Precision Irrigation Leads
To Efficiency
Tommy Horton
The Perfect Combination
One of Bordovsky's colleagues is Dana Porter, Extension irrigation specialist in Lubbock, and she credits an unusual industry partnership that contributes to producers embracing new irrigation techniques.
She also says current economic conditions have forced producers to become more efficient.
"Water is a limited resource here in Texas, and producers have to be as efficient as possible," she says. "We have some farmers who are rapid adopters and very savvy about the tools available to them."
Porter also points to the working relationship among irrigation equipment companies, Extension specialists, conservation experts and producers as being advantageous for all parties in the industry.
"All of us seem to be on the same page, and that's part of the strength of where we are in irrigation research," she says. "You're bound to make progress when you have this kind of cooperation among so many groups."
