irrigationBecause agriculture has always been economically risky, farmers have long sought ways to minimise weather related hazards that impact farming. It was therefore noted that supplememental application of water to the soil can reduce the effect of drought, this is called irrigation.
Irrigation offers farmers with the opportunity to produce crops in all the season therefore ensuring food security and high profits from sales in case of commercial production.
Irrigated crop yields are double or more of comparable rain fed yields thus, irrigation development is considered by many as an important cornerstone for agricultural development.
To provide this unrivalled service, Grow More Seeds & Chemicals Ltd, put together a team with the skills to help with these problems and give comprehensive technical assistance across all aspects of irrigation and pumping. We are committed to providing a quality service across routine maintenance, problem solving and emergency callouts with the aim to complete every job on time and in budget.
The irrigation team can design, install, repair or service virtually any type of project within the irrigation engineering markets - at a competitive price and to the customers’ complete satisfaction

Our Services
Grow More Seeds & Chemicals Ltd
Our installation teams are skilled in the daily site management of projects.
Which helps to ensure that any project is completed on time and on budget.
At Grow More Seeds & Chemicals Ltd., we provide solutions, from service and repair, design and installation, or simply product supply.So, whether you are a small vegetable farmer, looking to irrigate - in the most cost effective manner - a 250 sq. metre land or you are a large scale farmer looking for sustainable alternative, to rain fed agricul-ture, we will always help you find a solution.
Experience has taught us that there is often more than one solution, so we consid-er every alternative before wesuggest the most appropriate, competitive-ly priced option.
We are always happy to help with any irrigation related enquiry. Even if it’s a project type that’s new to us - we will have experience of something similar.
We enjoy new challenges, and you can be confident our engineers and designers will work towards a successful solution. Every project has its own challenges.
Grow More Seeds & Chemicals Ltd’s experi-ence in this area ensures that you can be confident of getting the most accurate and cost-effective design. Our design team have valuableinstallation experience, and are fully aware of the pitfalls of a badly designed system. We expect our suppliers to give us continu-al updates on their latest products, perfor-mance specifications and application. Regular training seminars are given to our design and installation staff.
Throughout the design process the team uses AutoCad software and other specialist programs to produce accurate schemes for our clients.
Although we would never rely just on digital technology we believe there should always be an element of creative human input in the final offer.
Once the installation is planned, a start date is agreed. Jobs can be meticulously planned but, arriving on site with poor weather, latedeliveries or equipment failure will inevitably slow a project’s progress. Effective on-site management, overseen from our office,ensures that minor hiccups don’t become major and are overcome quickly and effec-tively if they do arise.

The Piping Division includes PE, PVC Pipes and Fittings catering to the urban and rural infrastructure needs of the country apart from irrigation needs of the farmers.The Micro-Irrigation Division manufactures a full range of precision-irrigation products, provides services from soil survey, engineering design to agronomic support and nurtures a sprawling 2300 acre Hi-Tech Agri Institute. It undertakes
turnkey projects for total agricultural develop-ment. The division’s pool of over 800 agri scien-tists, technologists and technicians are well equipped to render consultancy for complete or partial project planning and implementation e.g. Watershed or Wasteland and/or Crop Selection and Rotation.The Tissue Culture Division grows Grand Nain Banana plantlets and has established vast primary and secondary hardening facilities and R&D labs.Agricultural and Fruit processing wastes are converted to Bio-Energy to partially run the plant. The residue is Organic Manure. Neem-based pesticides are also formulated. Both are critical inputs for Organic Farming.Agro Processed Products Division processes tropical fruits into Purees, Concentrates & Juices. The Dehydration facility dehydrates Onions & Vegetables.Plastic sheet division’s globally marketed products help conserve forests by providing alternatives to wood in the home building market.Solar Energy Heating, Lighting Equipments, Solar Pump and Bio-Energy sources are new additions.In a nutshell, the Corporation is the only ‘one-stop-shop’ encompassing manufacturing and marketing of hi-tech agricultural inputs and piping services as well as processing of agri produce.

ACCURAIN SPRINKLERSHigh Distribution Uniformity: Acurain Sprinklers has specially designed plastic impact/ turbo hammer / ball driven sprinklers. These sprinklers provide high distribution uniformity.
Unmatched Distribution: With Acurain Sprinklers, no furrows are required, irrigation can be done up to the last boundary. Thus area under crop increases.
No Droplet Impact: Preserves soil structure and prevents formation of crust, ensuring high distribution uniformity. Each and every droplet penetrates the soil, directly to the root zone, for perfect germination and
velocity prevents splashing of sand and fertilizers onto the seedlings.
Low application rate: Allows optimal absorption of water and nutrients into the soil and plant, with better control of the wetted and aerated depth.
Short irrigation cycles: Prevents stress from surplus or shortage of water; provides optimal growing conditions with highly accessible water and nutrients in a
Lower operating pressure : Specially designed drive spring allows sprinkler to operate at lower pressure with its uniform distribution.
