The Block and Fence Bench concept offers growers an affordable alternative to pre-engineered growing benches. By combining this simple bench system with a capillary mat system and automation, growers can reduce water and fertilizer use while optimizing plant productivity. Through the use of this bench and irrigation design system, the grower may also determine future design specifics and costs estimates for more permanent benching and/or irrigation needs.
