Rivulis Irrigation India, which is part of the global micro irrigation firm Rivulis Israel announced the launch of Manna, a satellite-based software solution for irrigation in the country. Manna Irrigation Intelligence offers site-specific irrigation advice or suggestions at the touch of a button. Manna, which is based on proprietary satellite models & sensor-free approach, provides growers with a high-resolution, integrated view of the entire farm rather than reading from isolated locations. It is important to mention that before downloading the Manna app, farmers have to provide the GPS location of their field, condition of the soil, details on a crop to be grown & date of sowing. Based on these details and India Meteorological Department’s weather forecast, the app will suggest the quantum of water to be released in the field every week after considering the moisture & expected rainfall in the area. It also gives real-time crop monitoring maps indicating vegetation level, vegetation & wetness variability map.
