Gardening is more and more committed to the environment and for this, it counts on the use of new technologies for both drainage and sprinkler irrigation.
Drainage is one of the elements to which we must pay more attention in a garden. Having a good system will allow the plants to always look perfect.
Nowadays there are several techniques that can be applied separately or together:
- Level the soil to avoid water accumulation in certain areas
- Create slopes to guide excess water from irrigation or rain into gutters or away from the garden or orchard
- Add organic matter and sand according to the permeability of the soil.
- Create ridges and vertical drains
- Control irrigation and carefully choose the species to be planted
- Install a network of drainage pipes
