Why electromagnification can result in better water usage and nutrient uptake

Aqua4D claims a reduce in fertilizer use of 30% and reports water savings up to 25%, against a very low power consumption

Electromagnetic treatment of irrigation water is rapidly gaining

ground in both greenhouse and open field production. After years

of R&D and extensive trials in cooperation with commercial

growers and research centers, Swiss company Aqua4D is installing

its system in a growing number of countries.

Better quality irrigation water, solutions for salt saturated soils, efficient

use of nutrients and fertilizers, stronger vigorous crops, a decrease of

algae and biofilm in irrigation systems and more resistance to diseases

such as nematodes. These are the claims that Aqua4D puts on the table.

Their secret: a mysterious tube through which the irrigation water flows,

just before it is sent towards the field.

According to Aqua4D, the magic happens inside their treatment unit in

which electromagnetic signals modify the physical aspects of the water.

“To make a long story short; the electromagnification changes the

properties of the water, leading to a finer and more homogeneous state of

the water and the salts and nutrients in it. Nutrients are dissolved and

distributed much better and more easily absorbed by the plants., while

excess water is trickled down well under the rhizosphere. There is no

more crystallization of salts in the soil pores damaging the plant and the

improved water retention allows for more water savings.”
