Low-cost Long Distance Irrigation

Video produced by theĀ Machine Learning for Better Aquaculture activity

TheĀ Machine Learning for Better Aquaculture activity interviewed a Bangladeshi farmer who uses a low-cost, long-distance irrigation tool on his rice-fish farm.

Luckily, farmers have created a simple technology to move water from the canal into the Gher by pumping water through long, plastic pipes.
