Agriculture & Irrigation

Magnetic water has a positive effect on plant growth. Magnetic water is more solvent and has a lower surface tension, so nutrients in the water are absorbed more readily. Use on agricultural crops results in higher production and improved plant quality with a reduction in the use of fertilizer.

Magnetic water used on animals results in reduced mortality, improved health and vitality, increased weight of livestock, and reduced feed quantities.

Magnetism in Agriculture was scientifically studied as early as 1862 by the French chemist Louis Pasteur, who discovered during fermentation experiments that the Earth's magnetic field had a stimulating effect on biological processes.

AQUATREAT has opened a new chapter in the efficient use of magnetism in agriculture. By lowering the surface tension of water, AQUATREAT improves water absorption into soil and increases solubility of nutrients. Water treated with AQUATREAT helps break up compressed soil, giving root cilia greater freedom to absorb water and minerals over a larger surface area, resulting in stronger root development and improved plant growth.

Minerals pass more easily through the water into plant roots, while electromotive forces transferred from treated water stimulate plant growth activity. These effects have been observed in thousands of experiments and field applications, leading to healthier, bigger, and faster-growing plants.

In drip irrigation systems, mineral scale barriers known as the "bowl effect" are dissolved, enabling roots to grow deeper into the soil and absorb nutrients more effectively.

Research into magnetic agriculture has a long history. In 1950, Dr. Albert Roy Davies received a patent for magnetically treating seeds to stimulate plant growth. Countries such as Israel have also been pioneers in applying magnetic technology in agriculture.

Field studies have demonstrated significant agricultural improvements:
• Cauliflower crops irrigated with magnetized water showed over 20% increase in weight.
• Alfalfa field tests in Oregon reported 650% yield increase and 42% reduction in water usage and pumping energy.
• Magnetic treatment of squash, tomato, and cucumber seeds resulted in 96% germination within 3 days, compared to normal germination of 73% in 14 days.

Use of AQUATREAT on farms also improves hen laying, animal metabolism, and dairy sanitation by helping remove milk stone deposits. Lower surface tension increases water penetration into soil and improves nutrient transport to plants.

Scientists from the Israel Institute of Technology (TECHNION) in Haifa confirmed through magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) studies that magnetic treatment reduces water surface tension, improving solubility and penetration and stimulating plant root systems.

AQUATREAT increases plant growth and production without increasing operational costs such as labor, fertilizers, or land usage. It improves fertilizer solubility in irrigation water, enhancing nutrient absorption by plants.

The system also prevents clogging in irrigation equipment, improving efficiency and extending system life while reducing maintenance labor.

Horticulturists have reported larger, more colorful flowers, improved flower quality, and higher yields when using AQUATREAT-treated water.
