NANOBUBBLES FOR ORCHARDS
Increase crop yield by 15% on your orchard with nanobubble technology.
Enhance fruit quality, reduce water usage, and protect your crops from soil-borne disease - even in tough climates.
KEY BENEFITS
We install our system into an orchard's existing irrigation set-up. This puts ultra high concentrations of oxygen into irrigation water, which is then delivered to crops. In orchards, we see the following benefits:
-
Increased Yield: Enhances crop yields by 5-15% while maintaining fruit quality, leading to higher income.
-
Plant Health and Disease Management: Provides a growth-enhancing, chemical-free alternative to costly traditional treatments, mitigating diseases like Pythium and Phytophthora.
-
Root Mass and Aerobic Environment: Improves root mass, enabling more efficient nutrient and water use. Fosters a more aerobic soil environment, benefiting organisms that enhance plant health.
-
Resilience to Environmental Stressors: Offers protection against heat stress and drought, maintaining productivity and tree health through optimised irrigation efficiency.
-
Improved Water Quality: Enhances water quality by mitigating harmful pathogens and promoting beneficial microbes, reducing biofilm and improving irrigation system efficiency.
-
Earlier Fruit Maturity: Enables earlier crop maturity by 1-2 weeks, allowing growers to access early season premiums or manage higher crop loads more effectively.

Grower goals:
-
Combat Phytophthora: The presence of phytophthora was severely hampering tree establishment and growth, despite considerable investments in chemical, biological and management practices.
-
Improve tree health and growth rates: The grower was struggling with the general health and condition of trees; grafted onto older rootstock five years earlier, the trees on the nanobubble trial block were underperforming, highly variable in size and condition, with more than half showing poor health and many needing replacement.
Outcomes:
-
Improved tree health and growth rates
-
Increased yield and fruit quality
-
Estimated ROI: Less than 12 months
HOW IT WORKS
Nanobubble Agritech systems are uniquely designed to seamlessly integrate with existing irrigation infrastructure, without the need for expensive overhauls or added pumping capacity.
Our Nano h-Series models integrate in line with your current irrigation system, with oxygen nanobubbles put into water that then irrigates the orchard as normal. The Nano h-Series requires between 6-16 psi spare pumping capacity for orchard integrations.
Systems always include a bypass option, in case you need to revert to normal irrigation for any reason.
By providing a flexible and efficient solution tailor-made for high water flow rates, Nanobubble Agritech systems ensure that growers can quickly adopt this innovative technology with minimal hassle and significant returns.
