On average, it rains about 850 millimeters per year in the Netherlands. This equates to an average of over 2 millimeters of rain per day. In most cases, this rainfall is not collected or stored. It’s a shame when you consider that in 2016, approximately 36% of water usage in agriculture consisted of tap water. This percentage could have been much lower if more companies would opt for the installation of a temporary water storage system. This allows excess rainwater to be stored so that it can be used to irrigate the land during dry periods.
Tap water contains several minerals that plants or crops may not necessarily need. Calcium, for example, is present in tap water but is not required by plants. Due to the absence of these minerals in rainwater, it can be better used to moisten the soil than tap water. This is another reason to choose a temporary water storage system on your farm. At Dutchso, we can install water tanks, basins, and water bags to provide enough capacity to store all the water.
