Water
The use of public water is slightly diminished in the last tree years from 833 m3 in 2014 to 721 m3 in 2016. In comparison with most golfcourse we use a small amount of water.
For irrigation we use groundwater. Since begin 2017 we can registrate the amount of water we are pumping up (2017:14.208 m3) . Also is it possible to registrate the amount of irrigation on each part of the golfcourse (i.e. greens, tees, fairways). We try to use as less irrigation as possible.
