Next generation irrigation for greenhouses, poly tunnels, vertical farms, rooftop farms and R&D.
Next generation irrigation for greenhouses, poly tunnels, vertical farms, rooftop farms and R&D. Giving the farmer an unprecedented amount of control over fertilisation and irrigation.
Imagine you could control the nutrition mix for each individual plot on a daily basis, with an installation that is significantly smaller, and uses up at least 30% less water and fertiliser?
What would that do for your efficiency, yield, product quality, profitability and environmental impact?
Instead of the steady flush of water and nutrients of traditional irrigation,
the ALIA Irrigation Smart Grid uses a system of digitally controlled routers to deliver tailored batches of nutrients and water exactly where you want them to go.
No return stream: no drains and no recycling.
Measured irrigation batches are moved with pressure differences to the target.
Washing machine-sized control unit and ultra small reservoir.
Decrease operational costs with an affordable plug-and-play installation.
Be more sustainable and reduce substrate, water and nutrients
Up to 90% reduction in nutrients and water
Automatic tube cleaning lowers your maintenance and cleaning costs
Enables multi-crop farming in small scale environments
Increases production even in critical zones
Plug and play with significantly smaller installation
No drains, no recirculation - and minimal disinfection infrastructure
Modular design alows step by step scaling
Tailored distribution & nutrition, healthier roots and less contamination
Each batch meets exact demand of target crop with high oxygen levels
Alows for real-time changes of irrigation recipes
Absence of flushing alows balanced development of the rhizosphere with a consequently healthier root system
Ultra precise zone-level irrigation and pro-active water management through network segmentation.
Because of the relatively low investment and modular, scalable qualities there are excellent business cases for the Irrigation Smart Grid in Greenhouses, poly tunnels, vertical farming and urban farming.
The next level of control ALIA offers, makes it uniquely valuable for R&D facilities.
