Natur Aqua drills irrigation wells throughout Vojvodina. We plan wells for greenhouses, fields, orchards, gardens and other farmland. The aim is for the capacity of the well to match the needs of the crops and the planned irrigation system, without a predetermined solution that ignores the conditions on the plot.
Having water available when it is needed is important for organising irrigation and reducing risk during dry periods. Your own irrigation well gives a farmer more control over the watering schedule, but its capacity must match the actual consumption of the system.
Agricultural wells are not planned on the basis of plot size alone. The crop, the plant growth stages, the irrigation method and the period of peak water consumption all matter. A well for an orchard, for example, may have different requirements from a well for a greenhouse or a large arable field.
Before drilling, we gather information about the location, the size of the plot, the crops and the existing or planned irrigation system. We consider whether drip irrigation, a centre pivot, a linear system or another method of water distribution will be used.
We then study the available geological and hydrogeological data and information from previous drilling. Based on the assessment, we propose a technical solution and the planned capacity. Information about a neighbouring well can be useful, but it is not enough for a final decision.
The well provides the water source, while the pump, pipelines and irrigation equipment determine how the water reaches the plants. Their capacities need to be matched to one another. If the system is planned without data on the well’s capacity, irrigation may be interrupted or the equipment may not work properly at peak consumption. That is why an assessment before investing is important.
The cost depends on the depth, diameter, the geological composition of the ground, the construction of the well and access conditions for the equipment. The purpose of the well does not in itself determine the price per metre. We prepare a quote after a free site assessment and once the required flow rate and scope of works have been defined.
The required capacity depends on the size of the plot, the crop, the planned irrigation method and daily water consumption. Only once these details are defined can the required flow rate of the well be estimated.
The price per metre generally does not differ just because of the intended use of the water. The final quote is affected by the depth, diameter, terrain, construction and the requirements of the specific project.
The requirements depend on the status of the user, the method of use and the volume of groundwater abstracted. Individuals who use the water for their own needs usually register its use with the local authority. Companies that use a well for irrigation need to obtain the appropriate permit. The requirements of the competent authority should be checked before the works begin.
Send us the location, the size of the plot, the type of crop and details of the planned irrigation system. Our team will assess the conditions and prepare a quote for a suitable well.
