ABSTRACT
This article presents technical clarifications on
pasture irrigation. Its scientific relevance lies in bringing to the academic
discussion a subject that is much talked about and little studied in scientific
terms, leaving many gaps to be filled by scientific research, based on
empirical data. Its social relevance lies in making available to producers and
technicians data and arguments that improve the search for greater and deeper
clarifications in this regard. This is a bibliographical, exploratory research,
based on reports collected in the field about the implementation, use and
management of irrigation in pastures and, from this, a solid argument is made,
presenting the benefits and risks of its use. Benefits arising from investments
in the field of agriculture must be interpreted from the perspective of a
specific science, Rural Administration, making use of precise economic
analyses, comparing data and results. The conclusions reached are that pasture
irrigation may even prove to be viable, as long as it is accompanied by
qualified and professional technical assistance, analyzing and comparing costs
over many years, requiring constant studies and a range of knowledge technician
in different areas of knowledge, such as soil, climate, climatology, meteorology,
animal bioclimatology, plant physiology.
Keywords: Pasture irrigation. Climatology. Rural Administration. Agronomic management.
