The quality of processing tomatoes is all about Brix - the percentage of solids present in the juice of the tomato. A higher Brix level is important for the quality of the crop and its flavor or sweetness. Many factors influence Brix, but water management is key to attaining high yields and Brix.
Precision irrigation means you have the best control of your irrigation regime and can induce water stres+s as the fruit ripens. This drives sugars to the fruit, resulting in higher Brix levels.
Eliminating moisture stress during the flowering and fruit setting stage ensures maximum yield. Drip irrigation is the only method to water the plant root zone frequently, enabling stress-free moisture conditions to be maintained.
It is important to maintain the balance between vegetative growth and productiveness. Precision irrigation provides both the control and the flexibility to ensure crops receive the exact amount of water and fertilizer they need.
Aries™ thinwall drip line uses TurbuNext™ technology to ensure optimal performance and clog resistance even under harsh water conditions. The ultra-low flow rate of 0.11 GPH allows the use of longer laterals resulting in cost savings on materials and labor.
Typhoon Plus drip line irrigation sets a new standard in clog resistance and enhanced performance. TurbuNext™ technology provides lower flow rates with a large filtration area while maximizing internal water turbulence for superior clog resistance even with challenging water conditions.
The industry's first pressure compensating, multi-season dripline. The DripNet PC combines the best of both worlds - a pressure compensating dripper in a thinwall tubing. Together these advanced technologies allow irrigation of row crops over hilly terrain with quarter-mile or longer runs at an affordable price.
