To meet this global challenge, digital technologies represent a major avenue for innovation and development towards modernized digital agriculture. In this context, irrigation advisory platforms have proven to be transformational tools for both farmers and policymakers, offering insights into the appropriate crop water requirements. This article presents a benchmarking analysis of around 20 professional irrigation advisory platforms. The methodology involves selecting 20 platforms based on accessibility ensuring geographical characteristic diversity. Our findings highlight key criteria shaping the ecosystem of such platforms, including the services offered and their objectives, the types of covered crops, the target users, the form, as well as the source, the availability of the platform, and the variety of data utilized. Lastly, we discuss the main conclusions drawn from our analysis and provide insights into the challenges and future perspectives of irrigation advisory platforms in enhancing agricultural practices and sustainability.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/digital4020021","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,2]],"date-time":"2024-05-02T12:06:38Z","timestamp":1714651598000},"page":"425-445","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["A Benchmarking Study of Irrigation Advisory Platforms"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"4","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-7700-9547","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Soukaina","family":"Boujdi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatic Sciences and Surveying Engineering, Agronomic and Veterinary Institute Hassan II, Rabat-Institute, BP 6202 Madinat Al Irfane, Rabat 10112, Morocco"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-1112-2953","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdelkhalek","family":"Ezzahri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatic Sciences and Surveying Engineering, Agronomic and Veterinary Institute Hassan II, Rabat-Institute, BP 6202 Madinat Al Irfane, Rabat 10112, Morocco"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0943-7121","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mourad","family":"Bouziani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatic Sciences and Surveying Engineering, Agronomic and Veterinary Institute Hassan II, Rabat-Institute, BP 6202 Madinat Al Irfane, Rabat 10112, Morocco"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6488-6048","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Reda","family":"Yaagoubi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatic Sciences and Surveying Engineering, Agronomic and Veterinary Institute Hassan II, Rabat-Institute, BP 6202 Madinat Al Irfane, Rabat 10112, Morocco"}]},{"given":"Lahcen","family":"Kenny","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Horticulture, CHA\u2014Agronomic and Veterinary Institute Hassan II, BP 18\/S Ait Melloul, Agadir 80000, Morocco"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"FAO (2017).
