Sistemes Electrònics Progrés S. A.
Since 1985 we design and manufacture equipment for fertigation and irrigation telemanagement. First equipment on the market, the Reg Control Analògic. It incorporated fertilization proportional to the irrigation time. The main objective is the introduction to the market of a new solution that consists of the use of photovoltaic pumping systems from agricultural irrigation that do not consume conventional electricity and save 30% of water.
