California growers, if you are under drastic water reductions due to drought and are ready to try something new, check out our subsurface water retention technology (SWRT). U shaped membranes installed at two depths below tillage depth are long lived and detain/retain up to 90% of applied water in the root zone. Gaps between membranes allow for deep percolation of excess water if needed. Dramatic increases in crop and biomass production have been documented by Scientists in 19 countries. This technology was developed at Michigan State University over the last 20 years for producers growing high value crops on sandy soils.
