Farmers are quickly adopting the use of fertigation system in Malaysia. It is highly popular among farmers planting chili, rock melon, cucumber, fig, etc. Not only that, increasingly, durian farmers are beginning to warm up to the benefits of using fertigation system in their farms.

It is undeniable that the fertigation system is an important technological innovations introduced to the agriculture sector. It has contributed to tremendous increase in yield and decrease in labour-reliance for farmers. While farmers have certainly enjoyed the improvement brought about by the fertigation system, there is a need to continue to improve on the system in view of increasing fertiliser costs as well as farm worker shortages. 

In Malaysia, conventional fertigation systems are characterised by manual fertiliser mixing, low uniformity of distribution, high fertiliser and water wastages, frequent clogging, etc. Most of the times, the farmers do not realise these problems until it is too late.

 

Autoflo Technology, under the brand Autoflo Smart Agriculture, offers farmers in Malaysia a fertigation system that eliminate or minimise these problems.

Our Autoflo Fertigation System is designed using proven engineering method; from the sizing of pumps, to the selection of pipes, to the design of the layout, to the employment of automation. The equipment and components we use for our fertigation system ensure every tree receives the same amount of water and fertiliser, while saving fertilisers and reducing clogging.

Our Dosatron Fertiliser Injector, a water-powered dispenser manufactured by Dosatron International in France, ensures that no worker spends any time to prepare the daily fertiliser. Not only are workers unnecessary, it also does not require any controller, sensor nor storage tanks, helping farmers to save on capital expenses.

For farmers who want to monitor their farms from afar or to analyse their farm performance using data, we are able to offer the Autoflo Fertigation System SMART. We use sensors for soil moisture, EC (for water and soil), pH (for water and soil), humidity, temperature, rain, NPK and salinity to collect data of your farm condition and relay the information to you real-time via the internet.
