A producer specializing in hydroponic blueberry cultivation located in Huelva, with a model focused on high productivity and resource optimization.
The farm covers an area of 10 hectares and relies on advanced irrigation and Fertigation systems for its production, where efficient water management is critical to ensuring profitability.
The main challenge arose from water supply restrictions, which reduced water availability to the point where only 70% of the cultivated area could be irrigated.
This resulted in a direct loss of 30% of production.
In addition, the supply system combined two sources with very different costs:
In this context, the producer needed to increase water availability without significantly raising costs, as well as reduce its reliance on external sources.
AZUD proposed the construction of the water reuse plant AZUD WATERTECH Recypack, designed to recover and treat drainage water from hydroponic crops.
The solution incorporates a comprehensive process that ensures the safe reuse of water:
The installation of the AZUD WATERTECH Recypack plant made it possible to completely transform water management at the facility:
