ÜBER DIESE EPISODE

How smart vineyard irrigation can improve soil

In this episode of Farmer’s Inside Track, Charl van Reenen, agronomy manager at Netafim Southern and East Africa, discusses why successful irrigation starts with understanding your soil. He explains soil texture, structure and infiltration influence water movement, why lower flow rates can improve irrigation efficiency, and how deeper root systems contribute to long-term vineyard resilience.

Van Reenen also explores the value of industry collaboration in developing practical irrigation solutions and why growers should base irrigation decisions on observation and understanding rather than assumptions.

Whether you're establishing a new vineyard or looking to improve water-use efficiency, this episode offers practical insights to help you make more informed irrigation decisions.
