This farm is located in central Georgia and covers an area of 15 hectares dedicated to strawberry production.
Its main objective is to sell strawberries in the local market, taking advantage of the abundant supply of high-quality water from a meltwater river.
The soil on the property consists of high levels of organic matter, exceeding 5%.
Location: Georgia
Farming: Strawberries
Strawberry farming has stringent nutritional requirements and is highly sensitive to the salinity of the irrigation water.
Therefore, it is crucial to monitor and monitor electrical conductivity (EC) of irrigation water after fertilizers have been added and prevent hasty decisions in the irrigation dripline.
To address this challenge, the AZUD QGROW V system, which has three injection lines, one of which is designed for the application of acids or other products.
Since the farm has sufficient labor and the cost is negligible, the decision was made to opt for a Manual fertigation equipment. This choice made it easier for the farm’s staff to adapt to and operate the system.
The equipment configuration allowed for a Precise monitoring of soil electrical conductivity (EC) and pH at the exact point where the fertilizers are injected, ensuring an adequate supply of nutrients for the strawberry crop.
Implementation of the solution AZUD QGROW V It yielded numerous benefits:
