Irrigation Solutions for Banana Producers

 

At Hunter® Agricultural Irrigation, we understand the unique banana irrigation requirements and recognize that providing the optimal amount of water is essential for achieving high-yield banana production.

We also recognize the daily challenges faced on banana plantations, so we've developed exceptionally durable agricultural irrigation sprinklers that are resistant to varying field conditions. Farmers using our sprinklers report they last 2 to 3 times longer than other models on the market—ensuring better performance, reduced replacement costs, and a greater return on investment.

The Senninger® sprinklers enhance the efficiency of banana irrigation systems by reducing energy costs while maintaining a uniform water distribution. By operating at lower pressures and delivering water with a soft, rain-like application, they minimize soil erosion, improve water infiltration, and protect crops for stable development.

At Hunter® Agricultural Irrigation, our commitment is to provide agricultural irrigation solutions that optimize water and energy use, ensuring efficient irrigation for banana plantations and maximizing your business's profitability.

mini-Wobbler™

The Mini-Wobbler™ outperforms traditional micro-sprinklers by delivering water instantly across a larger, highly uniform pattern. Designed to mimic gentle rainfall, its droplet size improves soil penetration without compacting it—critical for maintaining healthy root development in banana plantations. Additionally, its even distribution minimizes evaporation losses, making it an ideal component of a banana irrigation system.

We have unique sprinklers capable of replacing drip irrigation systems, employing the same flows and pressures, an achievement endorsed by numerous clients worldwide. A notable example is a banana consortium in Ghana. It faced difficulties with its drip irrigation due to insufficient moisture and adverse local weather conditions, resulting in water stress, plant deformity, and low yields. After switching to our Xcel-Wobbler sprinklers, they experienced an impressive 35% increase in their production, proving the effectiveness and adaptability of this technology.

 

Senninger has stood by banana producers since 1977, providing fundamental support for their watering needs. Today, proudly, our sprinklers are present in approximately 80% of the technified banana plantations worldwide. This achievement is due to our products' exceptional uniformity and durability, and resistance. We are proud of boosting yields exceeding 4,000 boxes per hectare, marking a true milestone in the productivity for this market.
