Benefits of KISSS subsurface irrigation for agriculture

Below Flow BENEFITS For Agriculture

No Root Intrusion
Root Intrusion is ELIMINATED without the use of chemicals or physical barriers. KISSS irrigation keeps soil at a completely even moisture content to prevent plants from seeking out water from a “point source”, as seen with other drip irrigation systems.

Higher Crop Yield
Plants are healthier and stronger with KISSS Agriculture, to better withstand plant maintenance, like pruning. Nutrients delivered in the right quantity at precisely the right time helps create more uniform sized fruit. With KISSS, we offer unsurpassed levels of control over yield and quality.

Use Less Water Than Other Comercial Irrigation Systems
Water usage is drastically reduced since the KISSS system does not waste water, caused by evaporation loss, runoff, and general overuse.

Reduce Agricultural Inputs
Since perfectly even moisture content is maintained within root zones both the need, as well as frequency of fertilizer applications is significantly reduced.

 

Reduce Negative Effects of Salts Build-Up
KISSS Agriculture irrigation creates a totally new, uniformly moist and more growth enabling root zone. The larger, capillary driven wetting pattern pushes undesirable salts out of the root zone.  

When water reaches the surface with other drip irrigation systems, it increases water evaporative loss, concentration of salts; forms hard-to-penetrate crusts and creates an environment for weeds to germinate and proliferate. Since stronger and healthier roots are more able to excrete salts and absorb vital nutrients with KISSS Agriculture, the dry soil above ground and the absence of weeds around demonstrate a more effective system. Overall maintenance costs are greatly reduced because fewer herbicide applications are needed.
