Fine bubbles are used to generate water and fertilizer for crop cultivation.
It also has the effect of promoting growth by increasing the dissolved oxygen concentration and activating plants and microorganisms with ultra-fine-bubbles. There are reports that it makes the crop resistant to diseases and cold weather damages too.
Also, fine bubbles are effectively used for washing the crops.
Major achievements in the agricultural field
●Irrigation culture of tomato and strawberry — Yield increased by approx. 20%
●Cherry tomato irrigation culture — Yield increased by 46%
●Spinach — Decrease of nitrate iron and promotion of growth
●Lettuce water culture — Installed 500L/min OK Nozzle
●Hyogo Prefectural Agricultural Institute
●Experiment is being conducted by the successors in Shimane prefecture.
Main application examples in the agricultural field
Ultra-fine-bubbles are used for cherry tomato irrigation in Kumamoto Pref. Japan
A good harvest of cherry tomatoes with ultra-fine-bubbles!
<2014>
● 200L / min Just install the OK Nozzle into the existing pipeline
● 5% -35% increase of the yield, depending on the variety
● With well water
● Irrigation amount approx. 150%
● Liquid fertilizer not solidified
● Increased the amount of fertilizer
● The irrigation tube was cleaned
46% Yield increase in 2015
- Oxygen was added by 10%.
- Organic fertilizer was also made from pig excreta using OK Nozzle. (OKE-MB08FJ)
Strawberry “Benihoppe” irrgation in Shizuoka Pref. Japan
Installed 100 L/min OK Nozzle to the piping. The use of fine bubbles resulted in a harvest of sweet, shiny, bright red strawberries.
The installation of 100 L/min OK Nozzle and the installing house.
Fine Bubbles for Spinach Culture
Without fine bubbles With fine bubbles
As in the photos above, the growth was promoted greatly by the conditions below:
– 25L/min OK Nozzle
– Using irrigation water for the farm
– Cow dung as the fertilizer
– Irrigation: Once a week
