" Everywhere in the world , agriculture and gardening have a problem with water supply . Either there is too much , or there is too little . " So pronounce Rob van de Meer , who is involved as a clientele consultant with a company that seems to have a solution for those parts where there is too footling water . Hungarian company Water and Soil train the Water Retainer : a production that retains water in the dirt , reduce vaporisation and ameliorate both the yield and lineament of various crops . With Ferry Szovan and Ruud van der Vliet , he is now work to bring the troupe and this biodegradable lotion to the attending of potential investor . " The resolution is too strong to go along up , " he says .
body of water retainerWhether you spray it manually or automatically or even dissolve it in irrigation water does n’t matter - the effect is the same : grease treated with Water and Soil ’s Water Retention product is able to keep back more water than untreated grease because the water vaporize less , so to mouth . " As a result , it works in two ways , " Ferry explains . " On the one mitt , irrigation or rainwater is retained longer in the filth , so it can not sink . On the other manus , evaporation is also prevented at the top , as water that would evaporate from the dirt is also retained by the product . There is due more weewee available to the plants and over a retentive period of time . "
Tests by the Magyar developers behind Water and Soil show yield up to 25 % in high spirits and weewee use as much as 50 % low-toned . " It is not only biodegradable but also recognize and offered by FAO for economic consumption in body of water - scarce regions and can be used in organic cultivation according to EU regulation , " Rob continues . " The liquid state concentrate is dilute with water and is amply degrade after 3 to 4 month . There is no residue in the filth , and the products are also chemical - free . "
Rob and Ferry combine their ground in the finance and intellectual nourishment sectors in their enthusiasm for this Cartesian product . Ruud van der Vliet sum up his agribusiness noesis to the consultancy team . " In Australia , crop sowings have replicate because there is not enough piss , but closer to plate , this issue is also relevant . Water famine is already a big job , even within Europe . In Spain , for model , or for tomato growers for the processing industry in Italy , but also as close as Germany , where growers are forced to adapt their operation to the slim availability of water , by converting their arable farms to solar control panel , for exemplar . "
" Agriculture and intellectual nourishment are too important to be lose , " Rob continues . " We see possible worldwide , in and outside agriculture : grass flying field , almond trees , date , cocoa palm palm . But also lettuce , cereals , and other cultivable crops . Tests in European olive tree provide increase production of as much as 400 liters of redundant Olea europaea oil per hectare . Which equate to a 25 % high yield . "
For the squad , it is clear - this product deserves a wider stage . And that is where they are now intemperate at work . " The technology has been developed and prove , the study have been done , and the relevancy is clean . The first reasonably heavy order is in , but what is call for to take this company to the next level is an investor with knowledge of the sphere and a desire to contribute to a sustainable solution for agriculture and horticulture .
