Enhancing Agricultural Irrigation in Saudi Arabia with Computational Modeling and Smart Technologies
Using Farm Irrigation Systems (FIS), farmers can carefully control the amounts of water and fertilizer in their fields to get better food yields. There are many parts of life in Saudi Arabia that depend on water, but it's very hard to set up or manage irrigation systems. If you use too much water, the soil can become wet, which can hurt plants, attract pests, and waste valuable resources. Some of the issues that come up in irrigated farming are managing sewage, too many people, flooding, uneven water distribution, and delays in work. Water flow often runs into problems caused by streets and houses. To solve these problems, need to use computer and mathematical models to come up with, test, and improve ways to evaluate irrigation. The Farm Irrigation System with Mathematical Modeling (FIS-MM) framework puts together economic ideas and makes systems easier to understand. This helps experts, policymakers, and farmers better manage irrigation systems. This method helps you see and understand important factors and how they connect with each other, which lets you guess results that weren't possible before. People try out their ideas in real life after they have been turned into useful things. The process of constantly coming up with new ideas, facing obstacles, learning more, and confirming those ideas leads to not only better but also longer-lasting irrigation plans. In addition, computer models can figure out the best ways to water plants so that the effects of soil salt and pollution can be predicted and lessened.
