Approved Designers
SABI is also dedicated to promoting water and soil conservation through proper water management.
Apart from the creation of educational programs, SABI strives to establish norms for the design of irrigation systems that help the farmer to use the available water optimally.
SABI has also decided to identify all designers that meet a recognised level of competence. Irrigation designers who successfully complete the SABI National Examination for designers will be awarded with official SABI designer status. These designers are bound by the SABI ethical code to designing irrigation systems which meet the design norms.
Therefore, make use of SABI designer members and be certain of a professional service.
