FERTIGATION is the delivery of readily available nutrients and conditioners to the crop via irrigation systems, to efficiently maximise yield.
The advantages of fertigation over conventional applications:
- Increased nutrient absorption by plants;
- Reduced amount and cost of fertiliser;
- Reduced fertiliser loss and leaching to the water table;
- Reduced water usage due to the plant's increased root mass;
- The ability to apply nutrients at the precise time and at a controlled rate;
- Reduced time and labour spent crop spraying.
Fertigation is suited to a broad range of farming, pasture and turf systems including horticulture, viticulture, dairy and golfing greens.
Fertigation can benefit farms large and small, whether irrigation is run centrally or at the paddock.
EcoDose Fertigation Systems can help you improve yield and save you time and labour by getting precise control over your nutrient application.
EcoDose pumps and systems are designed and manufactured in Australia for long-life performance in tough conditions and are so easy to use – simply dial up the flow you want (LPH) and the pump’s speed will immediately adjust, even when the system is running. Plus, digital displays ensure you always know your flow.
