<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe seminars organised by Aquadetect in the cities of Ovalle and Quillota were a resounding success. Under the title \u201cSustainable production in a context of water scarcity\u201d, the meeting in the Coquimbo region took place at the Casino & Resort in Ovalle on 14 November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The event was attended by distinguished collaborators, including V\u00edctor Mu\u00f1oz, Master's Agricultural Engineer and Manager of PER Fruticultura Sustentable Coquimbo, CORFO\/ASOEX. Mu\u00f1oz addressed the topic of "Economic productivity of water in fruit growing." Likewise, Daniel Cabrera, Geophysicist and executive director of Aquadetect, offered a perspective on "Water security: Is groundwater an alternative for the Coquimbo region?"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A crucial role was played by Netafim, represented by M\u00f3nica Castillo, Agricultural Engineer, who delved into the topic \u201cBuried drip irrigation (SDI) as an alternative to address the water deficit\u201d. Finally, Felipe Le\u00f3n, Agricultural Engineer specialized in table grapes and citrus fruits, presented the topic \u201cEfficient foliar applications\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
More than 40 people attended the event, including local advisors, representatives of agricultural companies, as well as students and teachers from various universities. The diversity of participants reflected the widespread interest and relevance of the topics addressed for the agricultural and academic community.
