HOW INNOVATION IN AGRITECH IS EMPOWERING WOMEN IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD

In developing countries, women bear the brunt of every load. Literally. They birth and raise their children, are responsible for the home, its cleanliness and provisions, and head out to the fields to earn their families’ daily wages. Yet, although women make up nearly halfof the agricultural labor force in these countries, they tend to have lower rates of land ownership than men, as well as less access to lines of credit, markets and technology, leading them to generate 20% to 30% lower yields than their male counterparts. It’s hard to imagine significant change in the female farmer’s life, when her days are filled with schlepping brimming buckets of water from the river to the fields. UC Davis researchers estimate that they  haul upwards of 1,300 pounds of water  per day — even more during very dry seasons — to grow 100 square meters of vegetables when watering crops by hand. And that’s assuming luck is their lady and there’s any water to carry at all. In areas like Nepal, India

GROW HIGH QUALITY ONION WITH DRIP IRRIGATION

Since onions have a shallow root system, frequent irrigation is the best way to achieve high yields and uniform bulbs. This makes drip irrigation a no-brainer for onion growers. The challenge for onion growers: Onion is a shallow-rooted crop and therefore does not use all the soil nutrients. Even then, leaching of nutrients to the deeper zone takes place. This refers to maintaining the availability of soil and moisture within the shallow root area. Onions are known to be surviving under tough drought conditions. But, water forms a critical element required in adequate quantities for onion crop growth, yield, and quality. Particularly in drought conditions, onions might split or form double or multiple bulbs. Besides, lack of sufficient knowledge, adequate nutrition, and plant protection management are other challenges that confront onion cultivators. Why choose precision irrigation for onions? Deliver the best quality to your market  Maintaining consistent soil moisture with drip irrig

What is Drip Irrigation, Advantages, Techniques - Netafim India

  What is drip irrigation? Drip irrigation is the most efficient water and nutrient delivery system for growing crops. It delivers water and nutrients directly to the area of ​​the plant's roots, in the right amount, at the right time, so each plant gets exactly what it needs, which makes it grow better. . Thanks to drip irrigation, farmers can produce more on the water as well as fertilizers, energy, and even crop protection products. How does it work? Water and nutrients are transported throughout the area in pipes featuring small units called 'drippers'. Each dripper emits droplets containing water and fertilizers, resulting in a uniform application of water and nutrients directly to the root zone of each plant over an entire area. Why do farmers prefer drip irrigation? The reason is simple. Not only does drip irrigation deliver higher ROI than other methods of irrigation, it also gives farmers an efficient and simple way to operate their fields. ·

The Ultimate System Of Subsurface Irrigation

  Traditional drip irrigation on the ground, now with the invention of root guard, buried underground lines can be buried for long life and trouble-free. Underwater irrigation allows the   precise application of water , nutrients, and other agrochemicals directly to the plant root area. This allows the farmer to improve the growth environment and leads to the productivity of high quality and quantity crops The depth and location of the soil support lines are determined by soil composition and crop needs. The active attachment contains water that moves through the capillary work to a depth of 4 to 30 inches below the surface, forming a continuous and wet area along the plant's rows. Frequent irrigation cycles (several times a day) increase capillary function and reduce the water surface. Netafim  subsurface drip irrigation  helps increase sugarcane yield by providing nutrients and water directly to the root of the crop, in quantities required and when needed. SDI includes water appl
