“Triple 90 Benefits”

Save more than you think with the AlRowad Technology

Qatarat 90%

90% Cheaper than drip irrigation

  • In poor countries, the irrigation systems that we use are not affordable for the bigger part of the society. The irrigation systems aren’t only expensive to build, but consume a lot of energy and water too. For people with a small budget who want to grow fruit trees and/or vegetables, we have developed the Qatarat® plant cocoon. With the Qatarat® plant cocoon the grower can save up to 90% water – compared to drip irrigation – and they don’t need energy!
  • Save costs and earn money with the AlRowad Technology On fertile land, one can plant seeds or trees without its use - the Qatarat® plant cocoon can be useful, not certainly not necessary. However, fertile land can be used for annual crops that usually offer a higher ROI (return on investment) than trees. So, in this case, we prefer to use fertile – and more expensive - land for these kinds of crops. Expensive land makes the cost of tree planting too high: the high capital costs (capital and interest) of an investment in land for the necessary long period - from the moment of planting until harvest - make it almost impossible to have an interesting or even acceptable ROI. The AlRowad Qatarat® plant cocoon offers so many cost advantages, that its use is in most cases, cost neutral; and in the longer term, it saves huge amounts of money, thereby reducing the production costs of our food and wood. The Qatarat® plant cocoon technology is a complete growing system which offers the possibility of high ROI, sustainability, and a significant contribution to the world›s food and resource problems that we all want to solve.

  • Inexpensive:

  • • No expensive energy plants to invest in; no electricity grid infrastructure needed;
    • No water transport pipes and drip irrigation tubes infrastructure needed;
    • In general new solutions are more expensive than the traditional method.
    • The AlRowadEcological Water Saving Technology offers the rare combination of lower costs and more sustainable.
    • Value rise of at present worthless land, creates the collateral to finance projects;

  • Planting can be industrialized;


  • • For rural family use; financed by NGO’s or governmental agricultural programs;
    • For consumer use; dry gardening or home production of organic food;
    • Easy to implement in micro-credit services; high revenues for financiers;
    • Low cost big scale ecosystem restoration possible in combination with pioneer trees;
    • Cities can recover their canopy on a street or suburbia level; also for parks
    • Easy to use on inclined slopes, viaducts or to prevent avalanches in ski areas;
    • Big scale fixing of sandy areas to prevent damage from sand storms;
    • This micro-protection makes tree planting on community owned land possible;
Qatarat 90%

90 % less water use Stop using drip irrigation

  • In many dry places where rain falls in a short period, people use drip irrigation. Keeping plants and trees alive with drip irrigation doesn’t only cost energy, but also a lot of water. Besides that, the root system of a plant cannot develop deep in the ground, because there is always plenty of water at the surface. With the AlRowad Ecological Water Saving Technology, trees and plants can be planted on degraded farmland without the use of drip irrigation. The benefit is that we use 99% less water with our technology (compared to drip irrigation) and you don’t need energy. Also, with the AlRowad Ecological Water Saving Technology you can plant vegetables that use 75% less water than when planted with drip irrigation.

+90% Survival rate more than 90%!

  • There are multiple big problems in this world. Desertification, sinking water tables, erosion, hunger and poverty. The patented Qatarat® plant cocoon is to solution for these problems. The Qatarat® plant cocoon reduces the water use in agriculture and trees can be planted with less water. The Qatarat® plant cocoon uses 90% less water and the trees that are planted with it have a survival rate of more than 90%!

“Qatarat Features”

With a steady increase in the global population many challenges are perceived in the near future, which means that we need to be prepared for humanity to survive them. By the year 2050, 10 billion people will inhabit the world. This means that the world needs 70% more food to cover the shortage in food supply in the next 35 years, and definitely food needs water to produce it.
