The smart water cycle
After your water intake, which can come from various sources like tap or rain water, the water is treated with an UV-disinfection to ensure safe entry water. This also adds the possibility to recycle drain water. The next step is Bicarbonate removal; it provides the right Ph-level for nutrient uptake. The fertilizer dosing systems add the nutrients at the right dosage with expert precision.
Our advanced irrigation monitoring system makes sure the correct dosing reaches your crop. The sensors measure evaporation and drain levels. Furthermore, the plant itself can determine the time at which watering takes place.
The drain water is then UV-disinfected again. This ensures that the drain water can be recycled and up to 99% of the crop protection agents are broken down before discharge.
Priva is a member of the Fertinnowa network
It is Fertinnowa’s mission to Close the gap between knowledge and growers with regard to fertigated crops. Fertinnowa is doing this by gathering and sharing knowledge and best practices about fertigation for different regions, crops and cropping systems across Europe.
One of the outcomes of the project is The Fertigation Bible. This document provides useful practical information to the horticultural sector about the diverse technologies available for all aspects of fertigation.
