Results for tag: "Fertigation"

Fertigation is the application of fertilizers and other agrochemicals through an irrigation system. It is a form of precision agriculture that allows for the precise application of nutrients to crops, reducing the amount of fertilizer and agrochemicals used and improving the efficiency of their use. Fertigation also helps to reduce the risk of nutrient leaching and runoff, which can lead to water pollution. Fertigation is becoming increasingly popular among farmers, as it allows for more precise application of nutrients and can help to reduce costs. It is also becoming more widely used in greenhouses and hydroponic systems, as it allows for the precise application of nutrients to plants in these systems. Some of the major companies in the fertigation market include Valagro, Haifa Group, Yara International, Agrium, and BASF. Show Less Read more
