Your crops thrive best with optimal soil and water management. Is the water too saline? Mineral poor? Too much or too little water? In order to respond adequately to developments in your plot, you want to be able to constantly look into the soil, or into the ditch, in order to know what is happening in the water system. Fixeau offers innovative and affordable solutions for this.
With Fixeau, we offer solutions to enable joint monitoring. With Fixeau View you gain insight into the water system based on data measurements and computer models. The measurements come from farmers, nature managers and water boards who use the Fixeau Pin and the Fixeau Mobile. We provide information and advice for both individuals and collectives, with which we can jointly optimize water management.
Do I suffer from salinization? Why are there puddles on the land, due to soil compaction or less effective drainage? What influence do I have on the water quality? Fixeau provides information for the individual farmer who can use the knowledge for crop optimization, determine the extent to which salinization takes place, and who receive advice to make choices about drainage, soil and water level management. Fixeau provides insights at regional level to achieve better water quality, sufficient fresh water and sustainable production growth. Fixeau provides you with a factual basis as a reference for third party interventions and optimization of the water system.
What is the relationship between ground and surface water? Does the groundwater level meet the reclamation standard? What is the influence of autonomous developments on the groundwater level? A good measuring network is important for good water management. The measuring point in the right place is not always possible and measurements deep into the water system are expensive. Fixeau helps by setting up a participatory monitoring network, together with agricultural entrepreneurs and/or nature managers who also benefit from better water management and better soil. This leads to awareness among all stakeholders of the (im)possibilities and support for and understanding of measures.
