After several years of development, Toro has introduced Aqua-Traxx FC (Flow Control) drip tape, which creates an entirely new category within the drip irrigation marketplace, Toro says.
According to Toro, Aqua-Traxx FC provides growers with improved uniformity compared to turbulent-flow devices, and superior ability to control overall system flow rate compared to pressure-compensating devices. This is made possible through the design of the Flow Control emitter, and leverages Toro's experience in manufacturing its Proportionally Balanced Cross-Section (PBX) emitter.
"This innovative new product gives growers a level of control they have not experienced in the past," says Eduardo Mendías, senior product manager for Toro's Micro-Irrigation Business. "We are excited to give growers a new tool to help them achieve their objectives: increasing yield and quality, while at the same time using water, fertilizers and other resources in the most efficient manner possible."
