WATER for EVERY small farm | DRIP IRRIGATION

Every small farm needs efficient watering systems. In this video, we look at the Drip irrigation system that we are using powered by 0.5 bars of gravity. We set this up with every small farm in mind and specifically chose to use non-compensated gravity emitters as a low-tech solution that could be replicated in rural South Africa. For a long time, we have been irrigating the market garden using two 10L watering cans. This made sense when we were still borderline subsistence but since we have taken on the challenge of scaling our production we realized that time spent watering is otherwise wasted time.
