Water is getting scarcer and energy costs are rising — making traditional flood irrigation increasingly wasteful and expensive. Up to 70% of your water can be lost, plus it can harm the soil and crops.
Netafim’s Low Energy Drip System (LES) is a simple, affordable solution that uses gravity — no pumps, no filters. It delivers water evenly, directly to the roots, saving water, cutting costs, and helping your farm thrive.
Make the switch to LES and start growing smarter, with less waste and more savings.
Traditional flood irrigation is wasteful, comprising 70% of scarce water resources, leading to soil degradation, fertilizer contamination, and increased methane emissions. In a changing world with rising water scarcity and energy costs, farmers must urgently adopt efficient alternatives.
Drip irrigation, the most efficient solution, delivers precise water to each crop, maximizing yield while minimizing resource waste. With potential water savings of 25%, and a 30% increase in yield, the transition from flood to drip irrigation is challenging but crucial. Netafim’s Low Energy Drip System offers a cost-effective technological solution to support farmers in this transition and promote resilient farming communities.
Discover how low-energy drip irrigation can save you water, energy, and costs.
Transforming traditional flood irrigation to an efficient gravity-powered drip irrigation system.
Netafim's LES offers farmers an efficient, sustainable irrigation solution, ensuring uniform water distribution across the entire field by utilizing the force of gravity.
No filters and pumps needed
Netafim drippers have high clogging resistance eliminating the need for additional filtering and pumps.
Integrates drip technology into existing flood infrastructure
Making it easily adaptable to flood water sources, such as: open canals, reservoirs and bore-holes.
Leveraging the natural topography
LES provides farmers with a cost-effective solution for irrigating their crops. This enables water delivery to areas facing scarcity and limited energy resources, harnessing gravity and eliminating the need for pumps. This not only reduces energy costs but also eliminates the necessity for establishing pressurized infrastructures.
A modular, all-in-one irrigation system powered by gravity—no pumps or energy needed.
An advanced system featuring filtration, fertigation, and booster pumps, powered by solar energy.
