Why Use Drip Irrigation for Agarwood?

Drip irrigation is a highly efficient method that delivers water directly to the root zone of each Aquilaria tree. This ensures optimal moisture, promotes deeper root development, and reduces water wastage—ideal for sustainable agarwood cultivation.

Benefits for Agarwood Plantation
| Benefit | Description |
| Water Efficiency | Minimizes evaporation and runoff, conserving up to 70% water. |
| Soil Moisture Control | Maintains consistent moisture level—critical for tree health and resin induction. |
| Uniform Growth | Ensures even water distribution across plantation rows. |
| Weed Control | Limits water to target plants only, reducing weed competition. |
| Fertigation-Ready | Can be used to deliver fertilizers and inoculants directly to roots. |
| Reduced Disease | Keeps foliage dry, minimizing fungal or bacterial infection risks. |

Recommended Setup for Aquilaria
| Plant Age | Dripper Count/Tree | Water (Liters/Day) | Frequency |
| 0–1 year | 1 | 2–3 L | Daily |
| 1–2 years | 2 | 3–5 L | Daily |
| 2+ years | 2–3 | 5–8 L | Every 1–2 days depending on climate |

Pro Tip: Combine with Fertigation
You can mix organic fertilizers or mycorrhizal solutions (like BarIno FusaTrinity™ into the water system via fertilizer tanks or injectors, enhancing root uptake.

Optional Add-ons
– Solar-Powered Pump System
– Timers/Automation Systems
– Weather Sensors for smart irrigation

 

Description

Drip irrigation is a type of micro-irrigation system that has the potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either from above the soil surface or buried below the surface. The goal is to place water directly into the root zone and minimize evaporation. Drip irrigation systems distribute water through a network of valves, pipes, tubing, and emitters. Depending on how well designed, installed, maintained, and operated it is, a drip irrigation system can be more efficient than other types of irrigation systems, such as surface irrigation or sprinkler irrigation.
