We supply the drip kits and participate in design layout and setup on your farm but first we must survey your land. The survey is done through a visit to your farm for the purpose of suitability test on soil, land topography and measurement. The main goal of the site visit is to ensure we quote the suitable irrigation accessories that match your farm needs.

Dam Liners
Dam liners are common hard and flexible plastic covers for collection and storage of water in dams or pans. A dam liner is a reliable solution for holding large water volumes due to their tensile strength and waterproof nature.
At Aqua Hub, we size and customize the perfect dam liner for your water needs as per the measurements of your pond or pan. Our liners are available in thickness sizes of 0.3 mm, 0.5mm, 0.75mm and 1 mm.

How to Choose Irrigation Solutions
Soil Type
Different soils have varying capillarity and water retention rates. Consider less frequent irrigation for soil with high water retention rates. For low water retention soil irrigation should be done often for at least 4 times a week.
Water Source
Before you decide on which irrigation method to use, first consider where you are drawing water from. If you are relying on a borehole, you need to pump water to a raised tank and depending on the capacity of your borehole, you can use a drip irrigation or sprinkler method.
For rivers or dams, it would be less costly to irrigate with rain gun sprinklers, but you will need a water pump.
Crop type
The main consideration when choosing irrigation solutions is the crops you are cultivating. Because of the difference in crop water requirements, you must understand the suitable flow rate for your crops. Another concern is the nature of crops whether they are prone to fungal infection or not. Crops prone to fungal infection such as tomatoes, potatoes and capsicum are best irrigated using drip irrigation.
Climate
The climate whether dry or tropical will determine whether you should consider a water saving or high water use irrigation method. In a dry area, it would be ideal to use drip irrigation technique.
