Why Jain Drip Irrigation ?

Water is not the only need of the plant. To uptake this water efficiently, it requires proper air-water balance within the root zone.
Drip irrigation, with its low application rate, prevents the saturation of water within the root zone and continuously maintains
field capacity. This provides a favorable condition for the growth of the plant. Drip irrigation also helps to use fertilizer efficiently.
With drip irrigation water can be provided at frequent intervals which helps maintain required soil moisture level within the
vicinity of the plant roots. Jain is the pioneer of drip irrigation. Ours is the only company in the world, which fulfills your entire
irrigation system requirement under one roof.

Characteristics of drip irrigation

1. Water is applied at a low rate to maintain
optimum air-water balance within the root zone.
2. Water is applied over a long period of time.
3. Water is applied to the plant and not to the land.
4. Water is applied at frequent intervals.
5. Water is applied via a low pressure network.
