We have proudly been working with Forster Irrigation since 2014 and over the years the team has been more than a supplier they have been a strategic partner in our growth. From system design to field trouble shooting, Forster Irrigation has consistently delivered irrigation solutions that are robust, responsive and tailored for our needs.

Our most ambitions collaboration was last season when we expanded to a new farm in Umguza. This was a full turnkey project in which Mr Forster personally surveyed our mine shaft water source using a submersible camera and then designed a custom system to irrigate 3ha of tomatoes in one go. The installation was fast, precise and professional.

The infrastructure, from filtration units to pressure regulation was executed with care and technical excellence. The team worked weekends and holiday to get us off to a perfect start.

We are proud to recommend Forster Irrigation to any grower looking for reliability, innovation and a team that truly understands agriculture.

Sprengeri Investments have been working with Forster Irrigation from the inception of our potato farm in 2016. They did all our irrigation installations and we have been extremely impressed with the service and quality provided.

Forster Irrigation are suppliers of CRI pumps (submersible) which we use on lower Umguza dam. This water is full of debris and extremely dirty. The CRI pumps offer great performance, are very reliable and have proved more than capable at handling the dirty unclean water. During the hot months of Sept to Nov, these pumps run close to 24 hours a day and we have experienced no problems or breakdowns and would recommend these durable pumps to any growers as we believe they have contributed greatly to our faming success.

Forster Irrigation is a pleasure to deal with. Their support is excellent, professional and reliable. We find the company to be a leader in the industry of irrigation and we look forward to a continued working relationship with them.

Highest quality service, offers a vast range of irrigation product, technical customer support and leader in wildlife conservation efforts with its solar powered borehole watering holes in National Game Parks across the country.

In 2021, we contracted Forster Irrigation to do both Chizumba and Moza Solar Powered Irrigation Schemes. The works involved at each site which were very similar was installation of;

• 1 x 60kw Solar Array,
• 3 x 22kw Solar Pumps in a Pumphouse, 315mm mainline and
• 40ha of drip irrigation.

Both schemes are functional as per specifications. We are happy with their works and have no problems with recommending them to any other potential companies for the same.

In 2016 Sesani Projects engaged Forster Irrigation to install 2 large scale Solar Pumps in Masvingo and Matabeleland South for a project funded by Climate Resilient Infrastructure Development Facility (CRIDF). Both pumps were installed within time and budget and have been functional for the past 3 years with no technical faults occurring.

At Natale Piped Water Scheme in Gwanda District a 22kW Hober inverter was used with a 35kw solar array which powered a 18.5kW Submersible to pump 30 000l/h to a head of 110m that discharged drinking water to a village 7km away.

At Kufandada Irrigation Scheme in Bikita District a 75kW Hober inverter was used with a 100kw Solar Array which powered a 63kW Submersible to pump 250 000l/h to a head of 65m that irrigated 28ha of drag hose sprinklers.

We would recommend for the use of Hober inverters for all large solar pumps due to their proven reliability.

We are happy to say that their performance on the above project was exceptional and we have no hesitation to recommend them on similar projects.
