Hydroponics
The challenge was to blend the easiness and productivity of hydroponic Floating Rafts with the seeding flexibility of soil direct seeding systems. It took several years of trials to come up with a revolutionary boards and highly mechanised system developed in cooperation with Italian growers and researchers. Automation help limiting to 5 workers / Ha for seeding, germination, irrigation, growing-up, harvesting & boards wash-up. Average production cycles per year: 20.

Deep Water Floating Rafts Technology (DWT)
Floating Rafts Technology was developed at the University of Arizona and at Italian research centers in the late seventies and has been adapted to commercial production by Hydronov. Since 1988, Floating Rafts Technology has been installed over thirty hectare (30ha) (3,000,000 square feet) of greenhouses in Canada, U.S.A., Mexico and Asia and has been used successfully to grow butter head and curly lettuces at a rate never reached ...
