Irrigation and organic farming

IRRIBIO
The Irribio project aims to study the links between irrigation and organic farming through the cross-analysis of statistical, administrative, and satellite data, as well as surveys on quantitative water management and agronomic reasoning. This study will be conducted over time and space in France, focusing on areas with contrasting irrigation and organic farming practices, and drawing on the perspectives of agronomists, farmers, and researchers. This study will be conducted over time and space in France, focusing on areas with contrasting levels of irrigation and organic farming, and drawing on the combined perspectives of agronomists, hydrologists, statisticians, and geomaticians. We wish to make use of all agricultural statistics data that can shed light on the issue (structural surveys, censuses, PK, Terreslab, RICA), also drawing on administrative data (RPG succession, BNPE water volumes) and remote sensing data. We want to compare irrigation practices in organic and conventional f
