C-Mist Sprinkler for Mushroom Farm
In present days, it is so important to have a mushroom farm with temperature and humidity control, so that we can obtain more yield.
He is a new customer for us, and he came to us asking for a better irrigation method for his existing mushroom farm. He complained that he has got less yield, since he is spraying manually using handsprayer. And it also involves more manpower, wastage of water, less uniformly sprayed and so on. So we decided to implement misting system in his farm.
