Installation of irrigation systems

With the advancements in technology, drip irrigation has become a crucial component at home and on the farm. Farmers are switching to advanced systems to automate and streamline their irrigation methods. Drip irrigation saves the amount of water used and, in the process, cuts down your water bill. In drier regions, they ensure that you remain productive without depleting the available resources.

Unlike other systems, drip irrigation is cost-efficient since it uses less water and requires less labor. After switching to drip irrigation, farmers and homeowners save up to 50% on their water bills! Not to mention, you’ll also save on maintenance costs, as drip systems are long-lasting and require less maintenance.

Various irrigation systems are efficient water and nutrient delivery systems for growing crops depending on the acreage of the farm. For instance, the drip system delivers water and nutrients directly to the plant’s root zone, in the right amounts, at the right time, so each plant gets exactly what it needs, when it needs it, to grow optimally.

We major on 3 systems i.e. Drip system, Overhead system and surface system. Costing for set ups is based on the type of system, acreage of the farm, crop type, topography, available water, client’s budget and location.

Materials Used:

The fittings used may be made of two types:

  1. High Density Polyethylene: This is commonly abbreviated as HDPE OR PE. These are flexible plastic materials used in production of the pipes and fittings. The pipes comes in various quality based on the pressure they can withstand such as Pn 6, Pn 8 and so on.
  2. Polyvinyl Chloride: This is commonly referred to as PVC. This is a bit fragile compared to the HDPE. As a mitigation Trenching is done and the pipes covered to lengthen their lifespan

Greenhouse Construction

For quite some time globally, farmers have been dealing with natural and man-made variables that have impacted production yields due climate change. This has made many resort to greenhouse and shade net farming due to the micro-climate it creates and yields in turn do speak for themselves as one is able to produce all year round.

Commercial greenhouse projects mean lower production costs as resources like water and fertilizer use are being cut down by an average of up to 40%, low risks and increased yield, while also enhancing more sustainable farming and food security.

Greenhouses can broadly be classified using two parameters

Based on Material Used:

  1. Metallic greenhouses; Galvanized round hollow sections are fabricated and covered with polythene. This greenhouses are long lasting with a lifespan of over 20 years with periodic polythene cover changes
  2. Wooden Greenhouses: The material used may be timber or round poles. The polythene cover is the same. While this is a cheaper option, it has a shorter lifespan as it is prone to termite attack and wood rot. Some of the mitigation measures against that is using treated wood and wrapping the posts in polythene cover

Based on shapes:

  1. Tunnel shaped: This greenhouses are dome shaped. They have side ventilations for ample air circulation
  2. Top air Vent: These greenhouses have a ventilation system at the top in addition to the side ventilation

Advantages of greenhouse Farming

  • All year round production( Not bound to weather conditions)
  • Higher yield per unit area
  • Lower risks of plant pests and diseases as the plants are protected from external agents
  • Requires a small piece of land to set up
  • Lower operation costs

Shade Nets Construction

Shade net is a valuable tool that helps farmers reduce the amount of sunlight that can reach their crops. Before purchasing a shade net, you need to assess the sunlight requirements for your farm. Different crops require different levels of sunlight, so it is important to find out the sunlight requirements of the plants that you will grow. For instance, the sunlight requirements for mature trees differ from that of tender seedlings in the nurseries.

Shade nets are made from lightweight knitted polythene fabric that provides people and plants with protection from the sun. Shade cloth fabric is available in densities ranging from 50% to 90% to suit the unique needs of different types of plants, flowers and crops. It can be used with greenhouses, hoop structures and in field applications.

Additional uses include fences, windscreens and privacy barriers. Shade material is rot and mildew resistant, does not become brittle and is water permeable. It offers superior ventilation, improves light diffusion and keeps greenhouses cooler.

There are many advantages of shade net houses on your farm.

  1. Shade nets protect crops from direct sunlight, help in ensuring optimum plant growth and help in increasing crop yields.
  2. They keep pests under control, preventing them from getting into the shade net houses.
  3. They create an ideal environment for growing crops that are highly sensitive to harsh elements such as strong winds and sun rays.
  4. They minimize water loss through evaporation and hence increasing your irrigation efficiency.

Shade net houses can be used in livestock farms and orchards of fruits such as strawberries. They can also be used when growing plants such as lettuce, flowers, nurseries, legumes, spinach, and vegetables.

Mazero Agrifood is committed to give farmers the best, from quality materials to professional expertise so as to make work easier for our clients. Order your shade nets and other accessories from us today and start enjoying the benefits of a shaded crop!
