URBF > STATZZ > USDA 2008 study of farm land under irrigation, the total need for water (on average across all crop varieties) was 17 liters (4.25 gallons) per plant whereas URBF's findings of the NIM technology reduce water usage to 1.72 liters (.45 gallons) which is a 90% savings. In an earlier press release we stated that the NIM Equipment has a total production capability of 59 times that of traditional farming, meaning that while a traditional farm is able to produce 193,000 heads of lettuce per year from single acre of land, NIM's technology is able to produce some 11,750,000 heads of lettuce within a 1 acre space. When you put both facts together over the course of growing those 11,750,000 heads of lettuce we will save better than 172 million liters or 44 million gallons of water."
