silvershine

Biasanya pengusaha fertigasi akan menggunakan plastic silvershine sebagai tutup bumi atau alas lantai. Saya cuba mendapatkan alternatif untuk menjimatkan kos. Hasilnya projek Temin menggunakan guni padi terpakai. Kos guni lebih murah sekitar RM0.08 sen sekaki persegi Nampak macam sikitkan? Tapi bila dikalikan dengan luas keseluruhan 8000 kaki persegi, saudara boleh tahan...

Maklumlah, baru start projek. So, memang nak kena cut cost. Kelemahan silvershine pula, senang koyak. Kos lantai dalam RM650. Kalau guna silvershine kos akan doubled.

Bagaimanapun guni ni ada kelemahannya. Drainage system must be good to keep the floor dry. Guni basah senang koyak.

Sistem Fertigasi

Installation for the system was carried out on Jan-08. I've done this my self with the help of 1 assistant. It took me 3 days to complete the installation. The 3 days were excluding assembling the nipples and dripper to the micro tubing. With the help of my family, I managed to complete assembling the tubing complete with nipples and dripper within 4 nights.

Another big job is fixing the tubing to the sub-line. I complete this in 2 days with the help of 1 assistant.

Summary
Install main system= 3 days
Assemble tubing + dripper + nipple= 4 nights=2 days
Assemble tubing to sub-line= 2 days
Total = 7 days

Sistem Fertigasi

Fertigasi memerlukan sistem irrigasi mekanikal yang terdiri daripada paip, tangki air dan pump untuk menyalurkan baja ke setiap pokok. Projek Fertigasi Temin menggunakan:

1) 3 tangki air bersaiz 400 gallon
2) 1 pump elektrik 1.0 hp
3) paip PVC 25mm untuk rumah tangki
4) paip Poly 32mm bagi main line
5) paip poly 16mm bagi subline
6) micro tubing siap dengan nipple dan arrow dripper
7) 3 tangki 120 liter untuk baja set A, B dan campuran.

The above system was designed for maximum 2000 polybags. Actually, the project started with 1500 polybags only. The balance is just for future expansion.
