Meet Precision Fertigation

Besides weather vagaries, what are the most critical concerns for Indian farmers?

It is the amounts of water and nutrients to the crops that they wish they could control, and the compulsion to use fertilizer for the entire season at once! The prevalence of these conditions for years has resulted in uncontrolled yields for farmers, thus adding to their already existing problems. So, what is the solution here? Yes, it is precision fertigation!

Fertigation is the technique of supplying dissolved fertiliser to crops through an irrigation system. Fertigation is all about enriching the crops with the right nutrient quantities, combinations, and at the right timings. Precision fertigation system, in turn, and as the word precision suggests, indicates the right combination of nutrients and water directly to the root zone of the crop, based on the crop development cycles, thus ensuring a comparatively higher quantity and the quality of yield.
