Decreasing water resources problem in today’s agriculture is one of the important problems of our farmers. Due to both dry seasons and geographical conditions, storing water in some agricultural lands has become an obligation. It is relatively easy to find solutions for small areas. Small capacity steel, polyethylene, polyester and even PVC pillow tanks can be used. However, as the need for storage increases, it is not possible to produce economical solutions with any of these tank/storage types.
The most economical solution, even in many cases the only applicable solution for storing large volumes of water, is agricultural irrigation ponds prepared by digging or backfilling the soil. The storage volume of the user is determined by considering the water resources and required storage time. The most suitable pool size is selected by evaluating the area that can be reserved for the pond. The key parameter is the pond depth. A pond drawing is prepared for the customer for the selected dimensions and the customer prepares the pond for isolation application by doing the soil works according to this drawing.
Insulation application is done using HDPE, LDPE, PVC or EPDM geomembrane. Our company prefers “HDPE geomembrane” based on more than 10 years of experience in this field.
