What is FERTIGATION?



Fertigation word derived from the word fertilization and irrigation. In fertigation, fertilization and irrigation process is given simultaneously to the plants. Fertigation belong to the group of hydroponic crop production without the use of soil. Generally, only a few types of plants suitable for planting only fertigation method, including tomatoes, chillies, cucumbers, eggplant, melons and strawberries.

By using the method of fertigation, plant operators can avoid them from catching diseases such as Pythium root, Fusarium, Rhizoctonia and bacterial wilt disease that mostly brought by land. In addition, the crop can be grown anywhere as long as enough light for photosynthesis and have a place to park polybag.

The method used in the drip fertigation solution capable of supplying water and fertilizer to crops effectively without waste. Water and fertilizer solution given regularly every day. Fertilizer solution that contains all the nutrients for the needs of the tree is given directly to the plant roots.

Technology is the most practical fertigation made ​​under Rain Protection Structure (SPH) to prevent the crops grown are not easily infected by any disease whether the disease leaves, shoots and fruit caused by rain splash. Apart from protecting the crops from diseases, SPH also prevents fertilizer solution to be too thin trees due to rain and cause affected tree growth and yield decline.

Fertigation purpose in doing is to ensure that we can carry on cropping and fruit quality more efficient, effective and easy to manage.

For fertigation operators generally suitable crops commonly planted are as follows:

  •     Tomato Baccarat 32
  •    Tomato Santa
  •   Tomata Cherry
  •     Sentils Chille  
  •   Rock Melon
  •   Sun Melon

Here is a crop of high quality but is difficult to be produced in low-lying land. With the availability of fertigation system, it can ensure that each plant gets its supply of adequate water and fertilizers at all times that are needed by the plants or crops.
