In our recent webinar, we explored advanced hydrants, an essential component of irrigation infrastructure. We discussed their role as a critical interface between irrigation cooperatives and end farmers. The session highlighted how smart hydrant solutions can support water authorities and cooperatives in addressing challenges such as water scarcity,

Irrigation infrastructure modernization project in Alcolea de Cinca, Spain
Irrigation modernization is imperative for optimizing agricultural productivity, especially in regions facing water scarcity and burgeoning demand. The Santa Cruz de Alcolea Irrigation Consortium embarked on a comprehensive modernization initiative in 2016, forming the UTE Alcolea to spearhead this transformation.

When we need to limit the flow using hydraulic methods (as opposed to electronic methods), the flow is not continuously measured & sampled (only during setting). Therefore, pilots are designed to hydraulically sense the differential of pressure or force/velocity associated with the varying flow.
