The Groasis España Life+ team explains the Groasis Technology
An important part of the technology is the Groasis capillary drill
Mr. Egbert Jan Sonnevelt from Groasis España
Details of the drill are explained
The drill hangs like a clock and alays seeks its vertical position automatically
The audience is concentrated
The drill makes a planting hole
Clear vision on the automaticly searching for a vertical position by the drill
A perfect clear planting place is created within 30 seconds on rocky soil
The group starts the planting
The camera team interviews the participants
Inés López Ercilla Technical Coordinator of IUCN Spain
At work planting in each box a bush and a tree
Even though it\'s hot the work is not heavy because the drill cleaned the planting place
Cover the sides with soil to keep 100% of the water under the box
Although the field is full of thistles planting is easy
Mr. Sven Kallen CEO Groasis Spain is being interviewed
Planting Quercus ilex (common name Holly Oak or Holm Oak)
Aside of the river we plant Cornus alba (Siberian or Red-barked Dogwood)
Filling the buckets we fill the center opening with 4 liters (1 gallon) and the box with only liters as we expect rain in April to fill the rest of the box
A water truck is sufficient for all the trees
Carrying the water to the Groasis waterboxxes
