Up to 70 % water saving
|
- No evaporation
- High water storage capacity
- No exposure to wind
- Even higher water saving effect if irrigation runs during night time
- Reduction of soil erosion and improved greening of sparsely vegetated areas
- Extremely good root penetration, prevention of stagnant water and less pest affection due to dryer topsoiline
