A relative newcomer to the irrigation industry, Priya has applied her experience and passion for technology to improve everyday workflows and help users save resources. The issues surrounding sustainable farming practices and the need to prioritise world efforts to save water have motivated her to work in the irrigation industry. Taking from prior experiences, as part of the enterprise mobility rollout in Australasia, where smart devices were used to provide access to online forms replacing everyday paper workflows and documentation. The digital alternatives allowed users to more readily capture real-time data and as a result, make better and more informed decisions. Seeing the major benefits of using technology in industries that have otherwise remained stagnant has driven her to focus on promoting a shift in the way we work, achieving increased productivity, reducing costs, saving time and in the case of irrigation, optimising water usage.
