CNH's two key brands, Case IH and New Holland, continue to lead the way in advancing precision agriculture with the launch of innovative technologies and initiatives that aim to help farmers tackle water scarcity

CNH and x-Farm, an Italy-based agri tech company, have partnered to develop a pilot project in Uzbekistan as part of the Drops of the Future initiative. The project aims to demonstrate how precision technology and data from their machines can help farmers boost productivity and save water. The Drops of the Future initiative that has been set up by the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), empowers young professionals through innovation and collaboration and helps tackle water scarcity in Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan.

OSCE is focused on addressing a wide range of security-related concerns that include economic, environmental and human aspects. For the very first time, the organisation is working with private companies on the topic of water, agri-food production and energy to increase environmental efforts around water use, while improving production efficiency.
