DOST rolls out smart farming tools to help farmers prepare for El Niño

The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) is expanding the use of climate-smart farming technologies to help farmers prepare for the expected Super El Niño.

The agency is deploying the SARAI Automatic Weather Station (AWS), which provides local weather information to guide farmers on when to irrigate, fertilize, and manage crops.

DOST is also promoting the Automated Furrow Irrigation System (AFIS) and Nutrio® biofertilizer to save water, reduce fertilizer use, and increase crop production.

DOST Undersecretary for Research and Development Leah Buendia said the technologies will help farmers deal with extreme weather.

"PCAARRD delivers to our farmers and fisher folks iyong mga science-based at smart agriculture solutions para po ma-address ang mga extreme weather conditions, katulad po ngayon ng El Niño," Buendia said.

According to DOST, the AFIS technology can save about 20% of water, reduce labor by around 40%, and cut inorganic fertilizer use by 25% to 50%, helping farmers lower costs while improving harvests.
