Smart water filtration for agriculture determines crop yields and farm productivity. First of all, Bregus has developed high-performance iBregus PRO water treatment systems with smart water filtration for agriculture for agricultural enterprises – greenhouses, farms, livestock complexes. Moreover, our solutions ensure stable water quality for plants and animals in any conditions. As a result, you get optimal conditions for your farm’s development.
Why is smart water filtration for agriculture critical?
Water from wells or open sources rarely meets standards for agricultural use. It may contain excess iron, manganese, have high hardness and bacterial contamination.
Consequences of using untreated water:
For plants in greenhouses:
- Soil salinisation due to high water hardness
- Blockage of drip irrigation by ferrous deposits
- Growth suppression due to toxic concentrations of iron and manganese
- Deterioration of nutrient absorption
- Yield reduction by 20-40%
- Deterioration of product commercial appearance
For animals on farms:
- Digestive disorders due to high iron content
- Reduction in milk yields by 15-25%
- Deterioration of weight gain in beef cattle
- Increased morbidity due to bacterial contamination
- Premature failure of drinking systems
- Yellow stains on fur and feathers (reduces commercial value)
For equipment:
First of all, salinisation and failure of drip irrigation systems. Furthermore, corrosion of pipelines and automation. Additionally, breakdowns of pumping equipment. Moreover, need for frequent maintenance. Finally, significant financial losses on repairs and replacement.

Technologies of smart water filtration for agriculture from iBregus PRO
Iron and manganese removal
Problem:
Well water often contains:
- Iron Fe2+: 3-10 mg/l (standard up to 0.3 mg/l)
- Iron Fe3+: 1-3 mg/l (standard up to 0.3 mg/l)
- Manganese: 0.5-5 mg/l (standard up to 0.1 mg/l)
iBregus PRO solution:
- Professional specialised filtering material
- Iron removal efficiency – up to 99%
- Manganese removal efficiency – up to 98%
- Any performance level
Result:
First of all, clear water without yellow, red, purple or black tint. Furthermore, absence of ferrous deposits in irrigation systems. Additionally, optimal conditions for plant growth. As a result, healthy livestock without digestive disorders.
Water softening
Problem:
Hard water with indicators:
- Total hardness: 8-15 mg-eq/l (standard up to 3-5 mg-eq/l)
- Calcium and magnesium in excess
- Soil salinisation in greenhouses
- White scale on equipment
iBregus PRO solution:
- Ion exchange softening on cation resin
- Hardness reduction to 0.5-1 mg-eq/l
- Automatic regeneration with tablet salt
- Performance: 1-10 m³/hour per vessel
Result:
First, soft water for irrigation without soil salinisation. Second, no scale on equipment. Moreover, better fertiliser absorption by plants. Finally, quality water for animal drinking.
Complex purification
For the most difficult cases:
When water contains simultaneously:
- High iron (5-10 mg/l)
- Manganese (2-5 mg/l)
- High hardness (10-15 mg-eq/l)
- Organic impurities
- Bacterial contamination
Solution – multi-stage system:
- Mechanical filtration – removal of suspended particles
- Iron removal – catalytic oxidation of iron and manganese
- Softening – ion exchange removal of hardness salts
- Final filtration – improvement of organoleptic properties
- UV disinfection (option) – destruction of bacteria and viruses
