Description:
Vorganic system is a patented innovative technology to produce agricultural crops, and ornamental gardening, in non-drained system; based on a capillarity process.
The plants grow in a sealed cultivating tank and the fertigation liquid is automatically supplied to the bottom of the container with the aid of a level sensor. The cultivating tank is filled with five layers of specific substrates which enable the capillarity process.
Using this technology enables saving of about 80% of water and mineral fertilizers normally required by such crops, while substantially increasing yields.
