Development and validation of a semi-hydroponic system for sustainable cultivation (rtc-2014-2141-2).

Development and validation of a semi-hydroponic system for sustainable cultivation (rtc-2014-2141-2).

The HIPOFRUT project proposes the development of a technology for the semi-hydroponic cultivation of fruit trees, with which it is possible to significantly reduce the hydraulic conductivity of the soil-root relationship and increase the efficiency in the absorption of water and nutrients by the roots, with the consequent optimisation of irrigation water consumption.

The implementation of this innovative system in the usual practice of intensive woody crops, such as fruit trees, implies not only an important optimisation of water consumption and less soil contamination by nutrients by reducing drainage, but also allows an increase in production due to the total control over the root environment.
