This consists of a sprinkler irrigation system with a control panel having three different options for use: manual, with a timer, and with a hygrometer or soil humidity sensor. The irrigation control panel was developed within the framework of the Innovation Minga~~ 1~~ , coordinated by the United Nations Development Program Accelerator Lab and with the participation of the Technological Training School (ESFOT) at the National Polytechnic School and the ‘Primero de Mayo’ Central Market.  \nThis solution aims to improve water use efficiency and reduce the time and human effort required for situations where crops or herbs are mechanically irrigated. The solution has two components: first, the installation of a tank, pumps, hoses, and sprinklers to avoid manual irrigation using buckets. The second one is composed of a multimodal board with a hygrometer to determine the necessary amount of irrigation and thus improve water use efficiency.  \nThe results of the implementation a re presented below as an experiment in two vegetable and/or medicinal herb gardens, one with irrigation water and the other with drinking water.  \n1 Minga is a Quichua word and an ancestral practice consisting of collaborative work to bring forward community needs such as the building of communal ditches, roads, planting and harvesting or any common needs.  \nWhat problems are we addressing?  \n1. Physical effort  \nMany small-scale farmers dedicate long hours of manual work to irrigate their crops, as they use buckets and watering cans to pour water onto the plants, one by one. This method is frequently used by agroecological producers who store water in ","cbCaiuMFncuwcTfn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuMFncuwcTfn","pdf",4105653,22,"English","# Introduction\n## What problems are we addressing?\n## Intervention sites (sample)\n## Time during which the experiment was performed\n## Design and measurement methods\n# Llano Chico Intervention-Land Plot A\n## Pre-existing Conditions\n## Irrigation method before the intervention\n## Water management practices\n## Llano Chico Results\n## Reduction in physical effort and time\n## Water use efficiency\n## Contribution of the hygrometer\n# Intervention In Tumbaco: Land Plot B\n## Pre-existing Conditions\n## Irrigation method before the intervention\n## Tumbaco Results\n## Reduction in physical effort and time\n## Water use efficiency\n# Conclusions\n# Recommendations\n# Resources","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the irrigation system aim to solve?\",\"answer\":\"It targets physical effort and time losses from manual bucket-based irrigation, while also aiming to improve irrigation efficiency and water use efficiency.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the control panel work in the proposed solution?\",\"answer\":\"It offers three modes: manual on/off, timer-based automatic shutoff, and hygrometer-based control that turns irrigation off when soil moisture reaches the needed level.\"},{\"question\":\"Where were the experiment results tested?\",\"answer\":\"The report presents the implementation as an experiment in two gardens/lands: Llano Chico and an intervention in Tumbaco, comparing pre-existing conditions and measuring outcomes.\"}]","Irrigation system with a hygrometer to reduce physical effort and improve water use efficiency - Results Report | PDF",1791859348,8]
