As a new generation farmer we can't afford to practice agriculture the way our fathers did so we need to be proactive and have eagle eyes for opportunities. We must recognize that agriculture is a very risky business.

Irrigation is a means of reducing some of the risk in agriculture, and is necessary for vegetables and crops production expecially now that it's dry season.

The secret/hope is that additional revenue from improved quality and yields will not only pay for the costs of purchasing and operating the irrigation system, but also will result in greater profits.

Choosing correct system for your particular situation or farm is crucial, based on our research the best and most affordable provided you have a reliable source of water is (Spray tube system).

At HABDEC we've consider carefully the first costs of buying and installing the system, as well as the continuing costs for pumping, operation, labor and maintenance of this system and discovered that it's the best with mind blowing results on all types of vegetables and crop expecially plantain.

1000sqm with fittings is as low as N150,000 this will work for 1 acre of plantain or any vegetables the only thing you need to buy is 3 inches PVC pipes according to your desired dimension and pumping machine.

Seedling tray with 105 cell is also available @ N350 only

BENEFITS OF USING THIS TYPE OF IRRIGATION SYSTEM ARE:

1. It is a water-saving equipment for spraying irrigation that requirs low water pressure (operating pressure: 0.5 – 0.8 Kg/cm2= 7.12 - 11.38 PSI) which really helps save electricity and water.

2. It sprays evenly. This helps improve the germination rate of seeds and the survival rate of transplanted seedlings.

3. It has two additional functions:
A. It sprays evenly.
B. You can inject your liquid fertilizer into the tube, mix with the water meaning it can be used for fertigation. This helps establish the evenness of topdressing therefore, Irrigation + Topdressing = Functions.

4. After using the solid fertilizer, the spraying irrigation helps dissolve fertilizer, effectively seep the soil and easily reach the root without washing the fertilizer away.

5. It helps maintain the looseness of soil.

6. Since most of our crops and vegetables are planted in rows its extremely suitable using this spray tubes because it spray covering an area of 0.1 – 4 Meters.

7. It is the most suitable equipment for irrigating sandy soil.

8. Spraying with this type of irrigation in late afternoon reduces the survival rate of moth(harmful insects), and thus, reduces the amount of using pesticide.

Suitable for dry season crops and vegetables such as:
Plantain.
Pineapple.
Watermelon.
Cabbage.
Okra.
Banana.
Cocoa.
Oil Palm.
Vegetables.

Ok boss

Irrigation is the artificial application of water to the land or soil. It is used to assist in the growing of agricultural crops, maintenance of landscapes, and revegetation of disturbed soils in dry areas and during periods of inadequate rainfall.

Additionally, irrigation also has a few other uses in crop production, which include protecting plants against frost, suppressing weed growth in grain fields and preventing soil consolidation.

In contrast, agriculture that relies only on direct rainfall is referred to as rain-fed or dryland farming.

Why irrigate your farm?

The reasons for irrigation are wide, varied and differ for each situation.

For example irrigation;
1. Provides greater certainty with production than is possible with dryland farming.
2. Provides options for diversification or intensification.
3. Allows farmers to grow more vegetables, crops, pasture and increase livestock production.
4. Allows farmers to maintain quality over a critical dry period.
5. Ensures crops are not affected by moisture stress at critical growing times.
6. Provides greater opportunity to gain vegetables/ crops response to fertiliser application faster.

Although irrigation has many benefits, whether to irrigate or not is generally an economic decision.

For irrigation to be sustainable, the benefits must increase income sufficiently to cover the costs of development and provide an acceptable return on investment.

That where our spray tube comes in, it's highly affordable and efficient for all crops and vegetables.

Irrigation in Africa has the potential to boost agricultural productivity by at least 50 per cent, food production is almost entirely sustained through rainwater, with only six per cent of the total cultivated area equipped for irrigation.
