Study Shows Modern Irrigation Practices Saving More Water

The Association of Equipment Manufacturers released a new study examining how technological advancements across agriculture, construction, and the utility industries are helping organizations improve output and use less water. The report titled “From Source to Solution: Advancing Water Stewardship in the Non-Road Sector” showcases the world-class water stewardship taking place across North America. It highlights how U.S. equipment manufacturers are helping to save trillions of gallons of water annually through modern practices and technologies. “This study demonstrates that North American equipment manufacturers are doing more than just supplying innovative and cutting-edge equipment,” said AEM Senior Vice President Curt Blades. “They are enabling some of the most advanced water stewardship practices in the world.” The study revealed several key findings, including that modern irrigation practices are saving the U.S. 9.7 trillion gallons of water annually. Field-scale conservation practices are producing measurable improvements in water quality across multiple U.S. watersheds.
