The HIGH System.
The HIGH System uses pre-casted (and optional pre-seeded) planting base for crop (mainly vegetable) production. The nutrients provided in the planting base are from environmentally-friendly agricultural waste. Since they are engineered specially for plant root development, it can assure healthy vegetable growth during
production cycles.
Water is recirculated in the HIGH System. It is equipped with integrated circuit control for crop irrigation. The control can be programmed easily according to the actual need of the cultivar and climatic conditions. Over 10 physicochemical properties of the water are controlled when the water passes through the ozonation and microbubble system.
Special Features and Advantages
• Environmental friendly farming system requiring minimal manpower - suitable for both mass agricultural production and smaller scale family based planting for provision of healthier vegetables
• Shorten crop production cycle to 3-6 weeks for common vegetables under suitable growing conditions
Application
Although HIGH System is designed for vegetable production, with minimal modification, it is also suitable for ornamental or edible fish husbandry
