Funded research aims to optimize irrigation technology systems and maximize efficiency
-Daugherty Water for Food Global Institute
LINCOLN, Neb. The Irrigation Innovation Consortium recently announced funding for seven research projects in 2021, three of which are led by Faculty Fellows of the Daugherty Water for Food Global Institute (DWFI). The IIC is a university and industry collaboration that accelerates the development and adoption of water- and energy-efficient irrigation technology. DWFI and the University of Nebraska–Lincoln jointly are a founding member of the consortium and DWFI Director of Research Christopher Neale serves on its Executive Committee.
“The IIC brings together university and industry partners to accelerate the development and adoption of new irrigation technologies,” said Neale. “The IIC is a great partner in helping DWFI achieve its mission of global food security without compromising the use of water to meet other vital needs.”

Four years ago, Justin Gibson grabbed his camera and headed out to the Lincoln Marathon route to get some pictures of his mom.
It was already tricky because Lillian Gibson aptly nicknamed Lil was short and easy to miss in the throng.
But there was another reason.
âWhen I saw her, she was running sideways to say hello to someone, which was kind of typical,â her youngest son said.
Lil was a registered nurse and worked at the Dialysis Center of Lincoln. Sheâd run in lots of half-marathons and a few full marathons, too.
