6 Soil less Cultivation The soil used in greenhouse farming known to be hard and saline, and be contaminated by chemicals as a result of excessive watering, fertilizing and harvesting. In addition the greenhouse soil contains harmful nematode and fungus, which are very difficult to get rid of once it contaminates the soil. For these reasons greenhouse soil is required to be either completely replaced or ventilated by hauling it outside every couple of years which has a high cost impacts to the farmers. In recent years, soilless farming became crucial because of these reasons. Several raw materials like perlite, stone clew, Coco peat etc. have been tried for soilless farming. These are few advantages of soil less farming over soil which are given below. Enables farming where soil is not suitable : Since soil less farming eliminates the need for soil, farming can be done in fields where the soil is not suitable for plant growth. Early delivery, efficiency and increased quality : Since soil less farming provides balanced Nourishment, plants develop early with increased quality. Controlled plant nourishment : Soil less farming makes it possible to select the type and timening and adjust the quantity of the elements needed by the plants. This way controlled plant nourishment can be accomplished. By giving plants equal amount of fertilizers, it is possible to achieve equal crop growth and richness. It also makes it possible to avoid harmful effects of the elements (iron, zinc, copper, molybdenum etc.) in nutriments. Salt content and PH levels which has negative effects on plant growth can also be avoided. The nutrition intake of the plants is positively affected the temperature and oxygen level around the roots. Water economy and control : Traditional farming requires extensive usage of water because of watering methods that have to use such as seepage, concealing in the soil or vaporizing. The operating costs are lowered since water used in soilless farming can be measured, it is not wasted and it is automated. Reduction in energy consumption and labour requirement : Important savings can be achieved in energy consumption and labour force in soilless farming since it has technological and automated systems. Disease and weed control : The liquid nutrition and growth environment can be sterilized. This way diseases caused by the roots can be avoided. Since the plants are grown in controlled environment (water and soil) there is no weed problem.

7 Seed / planting material As per customer's requirement, we supply different kind of seed/planting material for greenhouse crops. We also provide tissue culture plants for different crops. Seed / Planting material for flowers / Vegetables Rose Gerbera Carnation Orchid Capsicum Cucumber Tomato Ginger Turmeric Garlic Cold Storage Lettuce Spinach Cabbage Bitter Gourd Yam Cold Storages are essential for extending the shelf life, period of marketing, avoiding glut, post harvest losses reducing transport bottlenecks during peak period of production and maintenance of quality of produce. It is, therefore, necessary that cold storages are to be constructed in major producing as well as consuming centres. The development of cold storages in the country has an important role in reducing the wastages of the perishable commodities and providing remunerative prices to the growers and to make available farm products to the consumers at competitive and affordable prices. Location : The project may be located anywhere in the country suitably either near the producing farms or consumer centres.

8 Hi-tech Irrigation & Automation System Micro Irrigation System Fogging & Misting System Roof Top Sprinkler System Irrigation Controller Filtration Unit Jain Irrigation Systems Limited offers Drip Irrigation Systems, Misting Systems, Sprinkler Systems and hand watering supplies-everything you need to water your plants, flowers and vegetables. The most efficient method of irrigation, drip irrigation uses up to 70% less water compared to flood irrigation and can more than double your crop yield. They provide total range of irrigation solution, where control the delivery of water through misting systems, drip systems and other greenhouse watering with our timers and controllers. Ideal for commercial greenhouses, we offer many controllers. Our Solenoid Valves are ideal for cooling systems and automatic water system control. The 24-Hour electronic time switch is an ideal choice for greenhouse Accura Agritech Private Limited is leading Distributor of Jain Irrigation Systems Limited Hi-tech Automation System Galcon's unique fertigation machines are designed for mixing fertilizer with irrigation water. Venturi pumps inject fertilizer into the pressurized water system. These irrigation systems can employ up to 8 channels of fertilizer injection together. The irrigation machines address the need for hydroponics irrigation for greenhouse cultivation. Since plants in greenhouses grow in a substrate (soil-less), they must receive all needed nutrients at a specific EC (electric conductivity) and ph (acidity) level. This requires that fertigation must be according to the EC/pH of the irrigation water. Such irrigation makes it easy to maintain the desired concentration of the fertilizer. Even in case of a preparation error or a substantial chemical complex, the correct fertigation will end up in the irrigation water. Scope of Automation Irrigation & Fertigation Misting, Fogging & Top Misting Filter backwashing Cooling & Heating Weather Monitoring Soil Moisture Drainage Mixing Alarm

9 Controller 1) Time based: Controller for small landscape, open field and other farm applications. 2) Volume based: It is standalone controller for small open field and other applications. 3) Sensor based: It is fixed and modular irrigation, climate controller for greenhouse, open field and other applications available in small and large casing. Automatic Fertigation System Galcon provides three types of irrigation machines Fertimix : Galcon's mixing machine that includes a mixing tank, Galcon's Galileo controller and EC/pH control. Fertijet : Galcon's by-pass mixing machine with direct injection that includes a Galileo controller and EC/pH control. Fertidozer : A by-pass mixing machine with no controller and EC/pH control. EC, ph & Temperature Instrument HANNA provides better solution for measuring above parameters easily in soil & water. It is hand on use instrument which shows idea regarding EC, ph & temperature.
