Activities
Water replenishment programs across 3 locations.
Conduction of digital soil analyses.
Deployment of FieldStations (agricultural moisture sensor stations) and FlowMeters
Installation of drip irrigation systems for water usage optimization.
Delivery of regenerative agriculture training programs.
Impact
Target: 2.96 billion liters of water replenishment annually by 2030
Kestel/Bursa: 111M Liters
Tekirdağ/Çorlu: 1139M Liters
KeçiborluIsparta: 708M Liters
Overview
To address the water consumption of its production facilities, Coca-Cola İçecek and The Coca-Cola Foundation is running three ongoing water replenishment programs in three different locations in Türkiye: Kestel/Bursa, Tekirdağ/Çorlu, and Keçiborlu/Isparta.
Objective
The Water Replenishment programs aim to reduce water consumption with informed irrigation and to increase water capture through rainwater harvesting by helping the digital transformation of farmers.
Outcome & Results
Doktar has been managing these programs on behalf of Coca-Cola and has taken an active role in the preparation, activation, installation, management & reporting of the programs.
Using our wide farmer network, we have recruited farmers to participate in the programs and held farmer capability training to understand current irrigation practices and build new irrigation models by implementing technology. Monthly farmer meetings are conducted to address farmers’ needs and evaluate the program’s progress. Farmer accounts are setup on Doktar’s GIS Database to track data and provide progress reports.
Activities carried out across 3 locations:
Soil analyses conduction through Digital Soil Analysis Device.
Agricultural moisture sensor stations deployment for continuous soil moisture monitoring.
Satellite-based monitoring for soil health and moisture tracking.
Installation of drip irrigation systems for water usage optimization.
Construction of an artificial reservoir, monitored through sensors while reporting the captured water volume.
Implementation of contour site construction to support water capture.
Delivery of regenerative agriculture training programs.
Installation of flowmeters for monitoring water usage.
To complete the digital transformation of the farmers in 3 locations, continuous communication channels were activated via WhatsApp groups and Technical Support. Also, trainings were held to promote advanced irrigation methods and good agronomic practices.
Scope
The Coca-Cola Water Replenishment programs aim to replenish 2960 million liters of water by 2030 annually.
