Advantages
Save water
Water conservation by targeted irrigation adapted to the plant directly at the roots and thus no loss of water through evaporation; Water savings up to 75 %.
Reduced fertilizer use
In addition to water, also liquid fertilizer can be added directly by the mipotube® to the plant. The targeted use after analysis of soil samples obtained a saving of fertilizers up to 50 %.
Increase of crop yields
With mipotube® the crop yields on the same land increase by up to 30 % compared to conventional irrigation systems.
Long service life
With proper installation and use, the mipotube® is at least 20 years of service (when used correctly at trees, for example Date palms or apple trees, the mipotube® remains in use over the entire lifetime of the plant).
Sustainable
The mipotube® is made of recycled rubber from used tires and polyethylene and is in turn itself fully recyclable. The production process is CO2 neutral.
Organic production
Due to the dry surface less pests are attracted. The use of pesticides is greatly reduced or even completely avoided. Organic products can be easily produced.
Irrigation automatic
The automatic irrigation controls save time and staff.
Hardly weed growth
Because of the lack of surface moisture when using the mipotube® irrigation system the germination and growth of weeds is avoided.
Healthy plant growth
With proper treatment, healthy growth and thus healthy, robust plants are obtained.
No space requirements
By underground laying there is no obstruction on arable land, sports venues or parks.
Turf heating
The mipotube® can not only irrigate and fertilize a football turf. It can drainage the turf e.g. in the case of heavy rain, as well as aerate and heat it in winter.
Root development
Better and denser rooting compared to conventional irrigation systems.
No cleaning necessary
No clogging of the tube through soil, sand, dirt or roots.
Barrier-free irrigation
Thanks to the subterrean laying of the mipotube® irrigation system disturbances in agricultural work or in the use of green areas are avoided.
