Tree seedlings production
Reduce production time of tree seedlings
by up to 6 times
How it works
-
A few WaterPearls are added on top of the soil of each seedling, replacing granular silica
-
WaterPearls protect seedlings during transportation by keeping the soil moist
-
WaterPearls can be used as tags in the field for MRV
Performance
-
Pine seedlings can be produced in 6 months by:
-
Reducing abiotic stress (stabilizing the soil humidity level) of the tree seedlings
-
Shifting evaporation from the soil to transpiration from the plant, stimulating photosynthesis and thus biomass production = tree seedling is growing faster
-
Promoting a healthy biota of soil for maximum nutrient uptake​
-
-
Reduce water input by up to 50%
-
Reduce nutrient input by maximizing nutrient use efficiency
Benefits
-
Increased turnover in tree nurseries
-
Higher survival rate both in nurseries and during transportation
-
Sustainable transition to organic cultivation
Improved soil health and biota
-
WaterPearls can be used as tags in the field for MRV
-
Ease the implementation of plantation pledges
