4. What are the differences between the Waterboxx®/Growboxx® and irrigation?
-
Classic irrigation is not sustainable. It uses groundwater and the levels of groundwater deepen every year. The Groasis Waterboxx® and Growboxx® plant cocoon are sustainable and do not use the groundwater to plant the trees;
-
The Groasis Ecological Water Saving Technology is low cost. If you want to start with classic irrigation you need to drill a well, install a pump and a water pipe network and have an electric installation. For the Groasis Waterboxx® plant cocoon this is not necessary: just buy a few boxes and install them;
-
With the Groasis Ecological Water Saving Technology you can plant on rocks. Drilling a well in rocks and installing a network of water pipes is almost impossible;
-
For classic irrigation in deserts we need to install power installations of electricity. The Groasis Waterboxx® and Growboxx® plant cocoon do not use energy;
-
You can use saplings while planting with the Groasis Ecological Water Saving Technology;
- (Drip)irrigation uses 15 liters of water per day. The Waterboxx® and Growboxx® plant cocoon use 60 liters of water for the rest of their life.
