“I also want to thank the producers of Irrigation District 011, led by Mr. Agustín Robles, for their commitment. Thanks to the Irrigation Technology Program, which will have an investment of 6.4 billion pesos, they will be able to save up to 120 million cubic meters of water per year,” said Libia Dennise.
