How Greenhouses Benefit from an irrigation master plan?
Watering your plants can be one of the most labor intensive tasks a greenhouse has to endure. Not only is the labor cost high, the efficiency of that irrigation can be greatly diminished if not designed properly, causing undue stress on your crops.
What can HORTsolutions do for you?
We can evaluate your existing irrigation, determine your water sources, consult with growers on what the water demands are for your crops and ultimately design an irrigation for the unique needs of your facility.
We can also propose integration elements that can allow grows and managers to better manage their systems from anywhere. These types of systems have safeties built in to shut-down irrigation if issues arise such as pipe breaks or other catastrophic events. Saving money and plants in the process.
Centralized Irrigation Control systems
Centrally controlling your irrigation system can offer a wealth of opportunities for the grower. Being able to manage your irrigation system from the palm of your hand offers convenience and peace of mind. Not only does it allow for remote management but most systems offer built in safeties that alert and shutdown the system if the proper hardware is installed. More importantly, many of these systems allow integration with Building Automation Systems and Environmental Controls making them more valuable in the entire operation of your facility.
