Innovative device for improvement of watering and irrigation systems

Country of Origin: Bulgaria
Reference Number: TOBG20180913003
Publication Date: 14 September 2018

Summary

A Bulgarian company with more than 20 years of experience in the R & D of water treatment devices has developed a specialised device intended for watering and irrigation systems applicable in the enhancing of the growth rate and yield of crops, plants, vegetables and fruits.  The company seeks commercial agreements with technical assistance in the agriculture and horticulture sectors.

Description

The Bulgarian SME has great R&D experience on the field of water and liquid activation and treatment. They have an experienced research team which has implemented technologies and products in Europe together with industrial and research partners. 



Crop cultivation is a precise and delicate process in a very competitive sector. Efficiency, increased productivity, quality of the product and environment protection are all to be taken into account by the companies involved in the sector.



The device was developed by the Bulgarian SME with the intention to improve the watering and irrigation systems as a main element related to the growth rate and yield of crops, plants, vegetables and fruits. The system has a combined working principle based on current-free hydrodynamic ultrasound generation and magnetic fields. The effect achieved is higher water solving ability and improvement of the absorption of the soil-based minerals and nutrients by the plants’ root system. Plant diseases are decreased significantly. The improved metabolism has direct positive effect on the foliage and the root system development and therefore increases the crop yield. The utilization of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron and other useful micro-elements is improved. Concerning the floral industry the leaves and blossom colors of the plants become more intensive and saturated. The device has a disinfection effect as well, reducing around half of the bacteria content in irrigation water. The product is applicable for both indoor (winter gardens, greenhouses, etc.) and outdoor watering (parks, gardens, yards, crop fields).



The company is interested in commercial agreements with technical assistance with industrial partners operating in the field of agriculture, bio-foods; floral industry; irrigation and watering,  agricultural companies in order to implement the device providing expertise for enhancement of the production processes.

Advantages and Innovations

- the device has a multi-functional positive effect on all kinds of plants resulting in the increased growth rate and yield at a reduced water supply by up to 20 percent; 

- plants are also more resistant to waterborne diseases with less usage of chemical treatments. The product has been field tested on different kinds and sorts of plants, soil and water composition showing varying positive growth and yield effects;

- fertilisers are dissolved and utilised better; 

- the device is ideal for eco-production of crops;

- the product does not need electricity in order to function.
