Innovative Irrigation Solutions in Arid Climates of Iran

Given the increasing frequency of droughts, reduced rainfall, and growing pressure on water resources, finding innovative irrigation solutions for the arid climates of Iran is essential. This paper explores modern irrigation technologies and methods, such as subsurface irrigation, smart irrigation systems, the use of soil moisture sensors, and the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) in agricultural water management. The goal is to enhance water use efficiency, reduce losses, and achieve sustainable agriculture in the dry regions of the country. The results show that the implementation of these technologies significantly reduces water consumption and increases production efficiency. These technologies can provide effective solutions to address water scarcity challenges in agriculture, particularly in the dry and semi-dry regions of Iran. Not only do they reduce water consumption, but they also improve agricultural productivity and reduce irrigation and energy costs. Implementing these systems can contribute to the sustainable management of water resources and increase agricultural outputs, ultimately leading to more sustainable agriculture.
