Investigate the impact of smart irrigation systems on maize yield and water management in Senegalese farms.
Conducted a randomized controlled trial on 20 smallholder farms
Provided training for farmers on system operation and maintenance
Collected yield data over three seasons including pre- and post-intervention periods
Smart irrigation system increased maize yield by 15% compared to traditional methods
Regression model coefficient estimate was $β = 0.15$
Yield improvement maintained within a 95% confidence interval of [0.08, 0.22]
