Netafim will offer 35,000 Indian farmers in the southern-Indian state of Karnataka better irrigation systems through a new project worth $85 million. The project is slated to be completed sometime in 2022.
In cooperation with Megha Engineering and Infrastructure Limited (MEIL), Netafim will create three “irrigation communities” and teach local farmers how to operate them. It is this element of cooperation that could enable the large-scale work, as these individual farmers would not be able to afford such technology on their own.
