Ghirass has worked hard over the last 10 years to
develop the nano-irrigation system. It’s an artificial root
that saves energy and water as well as increases plant
production by supplying 24/7 intervention-free
irrigation perfect for water-scarce areas.
Irrigation impacts the entire world. It is a global issue
that threatens our food security. The United States
Geological Survey estimates that 70-90 percent of all
freshwater used for irrigation is wasted due to
evaporation and drainage. We are uniquely qualified to
lead in the field of sustainable irrigation, because we
have lived in the shoes of many farmers, and we know
what it takes to change their lives.

Our mission started in a simple farm run by our founder,
a business developer and eco-technology enthusiast,
Nasser Abuhaimed. He wanted to retire in a farm with a
few chickens and a loyal dog by his side. The farm
started to suffer because one of the trees was stealing
water from his cornfield. He had no way to supply more
water to compensate for the loss. He empathized with
the farmers around him who sufferd a similar fate and
started thinking of a better way to irrigate. And that’s
when his 10 years long journey of trial and error started.
