Established at Kibbutz Hatzerim in the Negev, an arid desert region, Netafim seeks a sustainable and practical solution to watering agricultural fields in the desert. Adopting ancient watering techniques, Netafim develops a system where plants are watered by low volume drips dispersed through intricate systems of tubing in a greenhouse or agricultural field. This practice has since been adopted all over the world, with Netafim operating in over 150 countries, allowing sustainable agriculture in regions previously barren.
