Bayer AG is programing meetings with neighbors that use the same water sources in order to jointly promote make a better use of the water. The site also shares its rain water harvest experience with the neighbors.

Moreover, we built a rain water collector reservoir that also functions as an irrigation leftover water collector, allowing to pump water to the tanks for spraying or machinery wash.
