McGill Christ Palm, Clarendon — Employees of the National Irrigation Commission (NIC) recently got a head-start on how to use an advanced water measuring system through training provided by supplier Jamaica Drip Irrigation.
The measuring system is aimed at improving water conservation.
The NIC, an agency of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, manages and operates irrigation schemes and systems established by the Government of Jamaica.
The Manchester-based Jamaica Drip Irrigation, which was successful in receiving the tender to supply the "Ultrasonic Flow Metre", used a two-day seminar to familiarise the NIC team members with the water-measuring equipment.
A sit-in session at Jamaica Drip's headquarters at Kendal was followed by a field trip. Trainees were taken to NIC pump houses in Clarendon and St Catherine along with trainers, including technical director of Jamaica Drip Irrigation Ofer Berkovich and representatives of Dorot Control Valves, which is a "leading global developer, manufacturer and marketer of [a] wide range of products for the water market".
