Profit from soybeans
Get higher profitability using less resources. Get Higher yields, consistently.
Drip irrigation fosters zero evaporation or runoff, so it creates the best water use efficiency (WUE) index possible.
Superior Raceways is offering to build for you at your soybeans farm, a raceway fish tank to grow 1,000 pieces of tilapia or catfish per harvest cycle of three to four months. Twelve litres of water will be pumped into your fish tank per minute by a solar-power borehole we can construct for you at your soybeans farm.
Using waste waters from your fish tanks to drip-irrigate your soybeans will stabilize your farm and reduce your risk during dry season weather. Inconsistent or no rain becomes irrelevant when you use nutrient rich wastewater from superior raceway fish tanks to precision drip irrigate your soybeans.
When you are growing soybeans, every season is a race to higher yields. But when you have a more precise way to control your water and fertilizer, every season will be better than the last one.
More soybeans per kilogram of fertilizer use. Drip irrigation’s high nutrient application efficiency ensures maximized production per fertilizer unit. It enables precise, measured nutrient application according to the crop’s development stage, ensuring optimal crop nutrition with zero leaching.
Maximize operational efficiency
100% land utilization
Drip irrigation uniformly irrigates 100% of your field, avoiding dead corners or unused plots, even on slopes or in odd-shaped fields. Drip is also a great solution for sandy soil where more frequent irrigation is a must.
Get long lasting performance
A subsurface drip irrigation system can last for up to 20 years, and many of the components, like filters, valves and conduction pipes, can last even longer.
Effective weed control
Precise water delivery ensures minimal weed growth, reducing herbicide application costs.
Easy operation, minimal maintenance
Drip systems have no moving parts or complex mechanisms, so, when compared to pivots, they require less maintenance and endure less breakdowns. Drip irrigation systems can be operated and programmed remotely, requiring less working hands per hectare.
If I have a lot of rainfall, will drip still be a good investment?
Definitely. While having ample rainfall is obviously a huge advantage, rain is never timely enough or consistent enough to allow the crop to reach its full yield potential. This is even more evident with sandy soils that have a lower water holding capacity. On top of that, drip is also a nutrient delivery system that allows you to fertigate and control the nutrient levels in your soil in a precise and economical way. Applying all of your fertilizer in just a few applications can be wasteful, especially under rainy conditions that provoke leaching. Splitting your nutrient application throughout the season guarantees that your corn crop gets what it needs when it needs it. This is what makes drip systems the perfect tool for increasing productivity in previously rain-fed plots.
