Water for Planet offers consulting services for improving water stewardship in irrigated agriculture sector. This includes  modeling solutions for water conservation based on region-specific simulations and multi-source weather and soil data.

Climate change adaptation requires a holistic analysis of strategies that can be implemented to cope with climate-related challenges. Water for Planet offers unique solutions based on multiple RCPs and high-resolution downscaled climate data.

Drought can substantially reduce crop yields. Water for Planet develops drought sensitivity maps by using big data and gridded crop modeling techniques. These maps can provide a baseline for upgrading drought mitigation measures. 

With increase in global population, improving crop yields is inevitable to feed billions of people. Water for Planet offers feasibility studies for managing water resources and crop suitability to shift from rainfed to irrigated agriculture.

We offer a wide range of microbiome analysis of irrigated and non-irrigated soils to help growers understand the biological life present in the rootzone. Also, solutions to improve soil health and water retention are provided (i.e., cover crops).

Decision Support Tools can accelerate efforts for promoting sustainable irrigated agriculture. Water for Planet offers value added solutions for developing Decision Support Tools to strengthen the  farmers' capacity for data-driven decision making.
