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.

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 i...
