Kerman province, as one of the main agricultural hubs of Iran, has always faced the challenge of water resources management. In a climate with high surface evaporation and low rainfall, basic water storage is not only a choice, but a necessity for the survival of modern agriculture. The implementation of agricultural pools in Kerman requires technical knowledge and local experience due to the variety of climates from mountainous areas to desert plains. In this article, we will examine the technical dimensions, materials and construction standards of these vital structures.
The strategic importance of water storage in Kerman agriculture
Agriculture in Kerman is based on products such as pistachios, dates and citrus fruits, each of which has its own water requirement. Due to the drop in the level of underground water tables, the use of water storage pools to collect the quota of wells or seasonal water has become doubly important. Implementation of agricultural ponds in Kerman allows farmers to manage the irrigation schedule and make the best use of pressurized irrigation systems.
The specialized team of Abanma Karan Kerman, with a deep understanding of the soil texture and weather conditions of this province, offers new solutions to reduce water loss and increase the efficiency of storage tanks, which we will discuss in technical details below.
Various methods of implementing agricultural pools in Kerman
In order to build a water storage tank in the vast area of Kerman province, there are many options for the users. The choice of each of these methods depends on the budget, the type of soil and the amount of water needed.
1. Geomembrane pools (polyethylene sheets)
Today, the most popular method for building agricultural ponds in Kerman is to use geomembrane sheets. These sheets have been widely accepted due to their high installation speed and lower cost than concrete. Resistance to ultraviolet rays (UV), which is very intense in Kerman, is one of the vital features of these sheets.
2. Concrete and stone pools
In areas where the ground is less stable or there is a need to build a swimming pool at heights, reinforced concrete or stone structures with cement sand mortar are suggested. Although the initial cost of this method is higher, they have a very long life. Abanma Karan Kerman in the implementation of these projects includes strict sealing standards to prevent the penetration of the smallest drops of water into the foundation of the structure.
3. Earthen pools covered with clay
This method, which is the oldest method of water storage, is still implemented in the areas of Kerman where high-quality clay is available. However, due to relative permeability and plant growth in the body, it is less recommended today unless combined with modern impermeable layers.
Technical and engineering stages of agricultural pool implementation
The process of implementation of agricultural ponds in Kerman should not be started without preliminary studies. Any mistake in placement or infrastructure can lead to irreparable damages.
Positioning and mapping
The first step is to determine the location of the pool. The selected location should be close to the water source and agricultural land to reduce transportation costs. Also, it is important to check the slope of the land to use the force of gravity in draining water. The specialists of Abanma Karan Kerman use accurate mapping tools to identify the most optimal point for building a reservoir.
Excavation and excavation
After determining the dimensions, the excavation operation begins. In Kerman province, due to the presence of different soils (from sand to clay), the slope angle of the walls should be designed in such a way as to prevent falling. Usually, for geomembrane pools, a slope of 45 degrees is recognized as a safe standard.
Substructure and leveling
One of the most critical steps in implementation of agricultural pools in Kerman is infrastructure. The pool floor and walls must be free of any sharp stones, lumps or plant roots. It is necessary to use a layer of straw or lime and finally spread the geotextile layer (as a sheet protector).
Climatic challenges of Kerman in swimming pool construction
Kerman province has unique features that should be considered in the design of water structures:
- Strong sunlight: High air temperature and direct sunlight can cause poor quality insulation layers to become brittle and break. In the implementation of agricultural pools in Kerman by professional teams, high antioxidant grade materials are always used.
- Day and night temperature changes: The extreme temperature difference in the desert areas of Kerman causes successive expansion and contraction of the structure. This issue can lead to cracks in concrete pools, so it is necessary to install standard expansion joints. Surface evaporation: To deal with the high evaporation of water in Kerman, the design of the depth of the pool should be optimized relative to its cross-sectional area. Also, the use of floating covers or special shades has been proposed in recent years as a complementary solution in advanced projects.
Safety standards and regulations in water storage pools
The safety of human and livestock lives in the vicinity of agricultural ponds cannot be ignored. In all projects implementation of agricultural pools in Kerman, it is mandatory to comply with the following:
- Fencing: Installation of standard fences with appropriate height around the pool to prevent the entry of random people and animals.
- Installation of rescue ladders: In geomembrane pools, due to the high slippage of the sheet, it is vital to install knotted ropes or special ladders in the four corners of the pool.
- Warning signs: Installation of "no swimming" signs and "drowning risk" at regular intervals.
Abanma Karan Kerman prioritizes safety and carefully checks and implements all these standards at the end of each project.
The role of technology in improving the performance of agricultural ponds
With the advancement of engineering knowledge, the implementation of agricultural pools in Kerman has entered a new phase. Today, the use of level sensors and online monitoring systems allows farmers to remotely control the amount of available water. Also, connecting the pool's outlet to the central filtration stations prevents the entry of solutes and suspended particles into the drippers of the irrigation system and increases the life of the equipment.
In Kerman, where water quality is associated with salinity in some areas, choosing a material that is resistant to corrosion (such as heavy polyethylene) is very important. This is where the operational experience of a group like Abanma Karan Kerman in choosing the grade of raw materials shows its value.
Maintenance and renovation of old swimming pools in Kerman
Many of the traditional pools in Kerman have hidden leaks due to wear and tear, which leads to the waste of a huge amount of water resources. The implementation of agricultural ponds in Kerman does not only mean the construction of a new structure, but also the improvement of old reservoirs is an important part of this process.
Covering cracked concrete pools with flexible layers of geomembranes is one of the most economical and effective methods for reviving these resources. This work makes it possible to obtain a completely isolated and impermeable tank without the need to destroy the previous structure.
Benefits of working with local experts in Kerman
Choosing a local contractor for implementation of agricultural pools in Kerman has many advantages. Accurately knowing the reliable suppliers of the region, knowing the local laws of agricultural jihad, and most importantly, understanding the climatic conditions of each city (from tropical climate to cold climate), makes the output of the work with the highest possible quality.
Abanma Karan Kerman group, relying on years of experience in micro and macro projects of the province, from the initial consultation stage to the design of the plan and final implementation, is with the dear farmers and gardeners. Our goal is not only to build a reservoir, but to create a stable system to preserve water drop by drop in the largest province of the country.
The effect of material quality on the lifespan of the structure
One of the common mistakes in running agricultural pools in Kerman is to sacrifice quality for cheap prices. Poor quality sheets will rot in a short period of time against strong desert winds and sunlight. The use of sheets with national standards and the approval of agricultural jihad guarantees the security of your investment. In our projects, we always emphasize the use of layers with a valid guarantee to provide the user with peace of mind.
