Our experience
To sum up water in agriculture is a very big problem. Most of the water in the world is not consumed in the home. Agriculture uses about 70 percent of the water. This fact is extremely fascinating. Our opinion after this foundings from the interviews has changed. We have to save water. It is a scarce good and we have to pay attention to the usage.
In the beginning we thought that the watering on farms is not that common. We also imagined that in probably every country they have no problems with water except of the continent of Africa. If we think how water will be used in 100 years in the agriculture, we don‘t think very positiv. Because of the climat change the farmers need to water their plantage more often than today. It will not rain as often and if it rains the rainfall is much weaker. The farmers have confirmed our suspicion of water scarcity in the future with the survey.
Because of all these discoveries, we decided to create an Instagram account on which we want to share how important it is to take care of our water. So, if you are interested in the topic of the water supplying in agriculture follow us on Instagram the_use_of_water
As we have already mentioned, we had the opportunity to cooperate with India. Except for a few misunderstandings, our communication was excellent. Once our collaboration was established, we opened a group chat on WhatsApp. We exchanged ideas, shared our progress and sent each other pictures. Video chats were also a very helpful option. We made good progress and all members tried to complete the tasks on time. Of course there were also some technical problems. The Internet caused us difficulties in chatting again and again. Also the time difference was noticeable here and there. But all in all it was a very positive experience.
