Drill alert for hot records, but lakes and rivers hold – The hot record of these days does not affect for now on the levels of rivers and lakes which, thanks to the abundant rainfall of the past few months, currently seem to keep. It is the picture that emerged during a meeting, in Milan, of the National Reclamation and Irrigation Association. Lake Garda is about 90% filling, 117 centimeters on the hydrometric zero, while Lake Iseo is 74%, and guarantee water without problems. Even the Po, for now, despite the down levels, does not present problems. In the fields there are the seconds collected, especially corn, which need large quantities of water. “For now – with 8 thousand liters per second, half of our ability, we manage to guarantee farmers the water we catch from the Po”, comments Simone Minelli, president of the Terre dei Gonzaga reclamation consortium. “Things are fine with us too – says the president of the Garda Chiese consortium, Aldo Bignotti – even if we have been told to prepare to derive 7% less water from the Arnò channel that comes from the churches and, therefore, from Lake Idro, but we will replace it with that taken from our wells”. “The stable water availability of Garda – echoes Filiberto Speziale, president of the Terre del Mincio consortium – allows us to meet the needs of farmers, but it is clear that we must be careful not to waste water”.
