22 Apr HERMISAN Develops a High-Tech Irrigation Project for Cranberry Crops in Caral, Perú
The technology used for agriculture continues to make excellent progress, and on this occasion, HERMISAN has come up with an innovative High-Tech Project for cranberry crops in Caral, Perú.
A Highly Efficient Project of 59 Hectares
The new irrigation system covers a total of 59 hectares and it has been designed with the latest HERMISAN technology to guarantee nutritional and water-use efficiency for the crops. The most outstanding features of this project include:
- SAutomated pump system with variable-frequency drives, which optimises energy consumption and it guarantees a uniform distribution of the water.
- Automatic ring filtering, which guarantees the quality of the irrigation water used, and it stops the system getting clogged up.
- Advanced NUTRICOMPACT fertigation system, o that the proportional amount of fertilizer is injected and the pH can be controlled precisely for balanced plant nutrition.
- Re-pumping of up to 9 bars of pressure, which guarantees the water supply coverage for all the crops.
- Radio controlled solenoid valves that run off solar power, which ensure sustainable and efficient operations.
- Automated Irrigation Management with the SUPRACONTROL software, so that the key variables such as pressure, consumption, frequency drives can be monitored in real time. It also supplies detailed statistics about the use of UF per valve, hectare and plant, along with the graphical analysis of the tank consumption and water resources.
HERMISAN: Innovation and Efficiency in High-Tech Irrigation
The founders of Interandina have a long tradition in the cultivation of fruit. The farms are located in the Andes, where the sunny days, the cool nights, the low humidity and the clean water create the perfect conditions for crop growing, and they enhance the taste and the texture of the fruit.
With more than four decades of experience in designing and setting up irrigation systems, HERMISAN has consolidated itself as being a benchmark in the agribusiness sector. Its commitment to using the latest technology means that the use of water resources can be optimised, which improves productivity and the sustainability of the crops in different regions of the world.
Not only does this project in Caral strengthen the position of HERMISAN as a leader in high-tech irrigation solutions, it also helps Agrícola Interandina SAC attain its objective of becoming one of the biggest agro-exporters of cranberries of Perú.
The mission of Agrícola Interandina SAC is to provide consumers all over the world with fruit that has a unique taste, which is grown in the best location using sustainable, socially responsible and vertically integrated practices, to look after the environment, the customers, the equipment and the shareholders.
Agrícola Interandina SAC: A Giant in the Agroexport Sector
It continues to expand in the international market, distinguishing itself as being one of the 15 leading agro-export companies of cranberries in Perú. By using advanced technology in its croplands, the company has managed to increase its production and optimize the quality of its products to satisfy the growing global demand.
This new high-tech irrigation system in Caral is another step towards modernizing its operations, ensuring long-term efficient and sustainable production.
Conclusion
The collaboration between HERMISAN and Agrícola Interandina SAC in this innovative high-tech irrigation project is a milestone in the modernization of the agribusiness sector in Perú. Using advanced technology not only improves efficiency in the use of water and fertilizers, it also contributes to making the Peruvian agro-exporters more competitive in the international market.
With projects like this one, Perú strengthens its position as one of the main producers and exporters of cranberries worldwide, which ensures a prosperous future for the agricultural sector of the country
