Soil Aeration
Soil Aeration with the Mazzei Airjection® technique
Improve soil aeration by entraining air as micro-bubbles into irrigation water delivered through sub-surface drip irrigation using Mazzei AirJection® Irrigation Injectors.
The added air improves growing conditions by increasing root respiration and microbial activity. These improved soil conditions have shown a significant increase in yields.
Injector models are designed for various water flows. Based on your system parameters, we can assist with injector selection and AirJection® system design.
The Benefits of Soil Aeration
- 12%-34% increase in crop production
- Dramatically improves late-season production
- Increased root mass results in greater nutrient uptake
- Increased microbial activity in the soil improves the growing environment Ideal for all soil types, including high salt soil
- Superior construction for years of trouble-free operation
- The unit acts as a pressure regulator
Mazzei AirJection® Irrigation Technology Improves Crop Yields, Water Use and Fertilizer Efficiency
Most growers know that plant roots need air to breathe. Without air in the root zone, soil can become temporarily anaerobic, inhibiting plant growth and yield. The challenge of getting the right amount of air into the root zone efficiently and effectively has been solved by Mazzei’s AirJection technology.
