polyhouse erection, soil selection, water analysis and drip irrigation selection.

There are  few things that needs to be  addressed properly when you are going into any kind of farming..
  • Proper soil
  • Good water 
  • Adequate sunlight
 as long as these three things are maintained in the right levels.. there are fair chances of your plants doing good.

so  i have been trying hard to get the best possible soil from the near by regions.. have been looking for soil samples from various locations and getting it analysed for soil PH and EC in particular.

i got the water samples  analysed and they seem to be ok and even if they need some changes.. It can be managed with chemical to change the PH and EC of water.
 For the drip irrigation and the fogging system i have been lookng around with various companies Netafim, Finolex, John Deere, Jain  etc..  will make a final decision this week and order for the materials   as i wil have to  get the soil into the polyhouse even before the  polythene is covered and   right after that we need to do the drippers installation too.


as you can see in the pics below .. the current status of work .. half done .. wil take another  week  to complete the rest of the structure ..
Hope everything goes well
