Algae Blooms and its Hidden Costs
Green water is a warning sign of rising costs
Irrigation ponds are a critical asset for agricultural water security. Beyond evaporation, however, they face another costly and often underestimated threat: algal blooms. Algae proliferation degrades water quality, increases maintenance and chemical usage, and directly compromises irrigation efficiency by clogging filters, pumps, and drip systems — ultimately driving up operating costs and reducing system performance.
