Our unique approach to agriculture, precision irrigation, is all about helping farmers to grow more food using fewer resources. In this way, agriculture becomes a way to break the cycle of poverty, and to generate sustainable livelihoods that sustain farmers, their communities, and societies.
We aim to connect communities to greater economic and social opportunity by leveraging our technology, scope, scale, and employees and collaborating with local and international partners.
We support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and remain committed to driving progress on select goals that are closely aligned to our Sustainable Impact strategy.
We are committed to operating ethically, legally and transparently. We strive to take actions and apply our knowledge and expertise to drive a progressive agenda for the benefit of business, society and the planet.
Changing rainfall patterns and frequent droughts are creating unpredictable weather which leads to less stability in our entire food chain. For farming communities to survive and thrive, they must reduce their dependence on the weather and take an active countermeasure.
40% of our planet’s land is already used for agriculture. We can’t afford to clear more land to grow food. Meanwhile, monoculture, soil erosion and over-intensive farming are destroying the land we have, making it unsuitable for farming. Deforestation is not the answer.
2.3 billion people already live in water stressed countries. With agriculture using 70% of the planet’s freshwater, and droughts becoming more frequent, water-efficient farming is a global priority.And yet, 75% of the water used in agriculture is wasted through inefficient traditional irrigation methods.
Our sustainability action plan is aligned with the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which comprises 17 global goals supported by 169 targets. Right now, we’re making the biggest global impact by focusing on the following goals:
We build the resilience of farmers, specifically those in socio-economic stressed nations by reducing their vulnerability to drought and other climate related events.
We ensure a safe and reliable food supply while increasing the productivity of agricultural land through knowledge transfer, technology adaptation, and support for farms of all sizes.
Along with our parent company Orbia, we are committed to increasing the number of women in management roles globally.
We increase water use efficiency in agricultural production through the precise application of water and nutrients, resulting in increased water conservations and water quality.
We build resiliency through increased green and public spaces while minimizing the overall environmental impact of cities, through efficient irrigation and water management
We provide a full circular solution for our plastic products, beginning with collecting and recycling drip lines at the end of their life. This significantly reduces plastic waste sent to landfills, while increasing the amount of recycled plastic materials used in our manufacturing process, and lowering our carbon footprint.
We strengthen the adaptive capacity of farmers to mitigate the effect of climate-related and natural disasters globally, through innovative solutions that reduce GHG emissions, and reduce the risks associated with droughts.
We bring together public and private entities to provide natural resources and agricultural production management solutions, helping farmers of all sizes around the world.
