This workshop at Pioneer Gardens in South Deerfield, MA will bring farmers and irrigation system designers together to look at emerging irrigation practices that increase water efficiency. Participants will have the opportunity to walk through and discuss the irrigation systems at Pioneer Gardens that were designed and implemented under the direction of a professional engineer.
In this event, the presenter will share a practical framework for assessing, prioritizing, and planning responses to farm risks, using pest and disease pressure as an example in the context of a changing climate. The host farmer will then describe how these planning tools have informed decisions on the farm, the new practices that have been implemented, and lessons learned through on-farm experience.
