A continuously growing global population requires the food- and agriculture industry to become more efficient and sustainable in their use of natural resources. Additionally, the climate change may push farmers to find solutions for more extreme drought and rainfall, without sacrificing their crops.
Fish farms are a good alternative to the traditional fishing industry. PE pipes are used for fish cages, to build a rigid, strong and floating frame. For irrigation, larger diameter pressure pipes can transport irrigation water over larger distances, or may pump water from the ground. Small diameter pipes and tapes dose the water in the rights amounts to the plants.
