Join Netafim's unique water stewardship program, which promotes the implementation of advanced irrigation systems that generate meaningful environmental and social impact.
As companies look to increase their efforts to meet ambitious water stewardship goals, transparency and measurable results have become essential. Netafim’s Corporate Water stewardship program offers a practical, scalable, high-impact solution by connecting corporate sustainability funding with farmers interested in converting into drip irrigation systems, but lacking the financial capital to move forward. Leveraging the ability to rapidly reach vast numbers of hectares worldwide, Netafim is embracing the opportunity to make large-scale water conservation a feasible reality. While corporate water stewardship has advanced significantly over the past decade, there is still more work to be done than there is funding. Today's water stewardship leaders can show the way to many companies that have yet to set water targets.
Through cost-sharing partnerships, Netafim helps farmers implement advanced drip irrigation technologies that reduce water demand and improve water quality in water-stressed regions. Each project measures the precise water savings achieved. These verified savings are then claimed as “volumetric water benefits or VWBs” to the sponsoring companies —helping them close the gap between their operational water use and basin-level sustainability thresholds.
This model creates a win-win scenario: corporations fulfill their water stewardship commitments with transparent, measurable impact, while farmers gain higher yields, lower costs, and greater climate resilience. By optimizing resource use on the ground, Netafim’s program drives real change that benefits local communities, agriculture, and ecosystems alike.
At Netafim, we initiate and manage full turnkey water stewardship projects. By connecting businesses with local farmers in designated basins, we implement drip irrigation systems that reduce water use and improve.water quality - thus saving valuable resources and promoting sustainable agriculture.
