Growers often come to Extension for solutions to one problem and walk away with multiple. Like when @Lipman_Produce worked with @UF_ABE's @WaterNBeyond to tackle flooding and, as a bonus, reduced their water usage by 25%. Read this @SWFREC #SowingSustainability success story 🔗 go.ufl.edu/7zh41rz

One way to stay on top of maintenance issues with your sprinkler system is to let technology handle it for you.🤖 Recently a @mypompanobeach resident upgraded her home system, installed a flow sensor, and told us about it. #WaterWednesday

Interesting times in Florida water - too little & too much. Communities like Zephyrhills and Dundee have development moratoriums due to insufficient water supply, while Edgewater/Florida Shores has drafted moratoriums due to flooding issues.
