  • THE BEST ENERGY TO PRODUCE Excellent sustainability standardsAt present the supply of electrical energy reaches each farm's door, another element of production that has been taken care of on behalf of those starting an agricultural venture here. But even more attractive is the potential the use of combined alternative energy sources represent. Self-sufficient supply from already existing conventional sources offers a sustainable future. Casa de Piedra is an arid area of low humidity that receives an annual rainfall of barely 10 inches (257 millimeters) and has perfectly clear skies most of the time. Full sunshine is present around 300 days per year along with constant winds. Therefore, the capability for developing clean energy sources is complete. There are several uses of solar power at the moment both for electricity generation and for hot water supply.

  • HEALTHY INVESTMENT BY NATURE Very low impact from agrochemicalsCasa de Piedra's natural conditions make up a particularly healthy environment. Its situation on a valley surrounded by a desert provides a natural barrier against plagues and different sanitary problems. Cold weather and permanent winds rule out any chance of propagation of harmful organisms, making the use of agrochemicals irrelevant. In the event such a problem occurred, its visibility would be greater and its treatment much simpler. Exhaustive control is easy to carry out, thus preventing any potential risk. It is safe to assume that no additional effort is needed in order to sustain organic crops in Casa de Piedra. Vigorous plants and wines of excellence

Winds make vines develop thick skin which transfers very special characteristic into the wine. The soil and wind factors shape an ideal environment for vineyards. On top of these natural gifts, the place provides the additional benefit of total absence of frost and hail. The characteristics of our soil present differential advantages even within the Patagonia region because of its adequate permeability and low salinity. This soil composition notably favors the final quality of productions such as vineyards and olive groves.

PERFECT IRRIGATION TO GROW Productive use of water

Casa de Piedra is a first class irrigation area only comparable to the world's best. Besides meeting the most stringent quality standards for production, the compound protects water -its most valuable resource- to the fullest.

The outstanding value at Casa de Piedra is the pressurized irrigation system in every farming allotment. It constitutes a unique and substantial advantage.

Use of water resources is a hundred percent efficient. All the water passes through pipelines without leaking a drop. Those starting a project just have to connect to the network in a simple, almost cost-free way.

Water is extracted from the dam by a pumping station and channeled by means of a system of valves at the exact pressure required by any drip irrigation system, which can be further optimized using a small house pump.

The works were entirely funded by the province's government and carried out under the expertise and supervision of Israeli experts.

The use of water is absolutely rational.

Water is taken at the foot of the dam by a pipe that carries it to the equipment in the farm that will drip it onto the plants. No water is leaked at any time in the process.

The irrigation system is equipped with several valves to control water pressure. The first one of them keeps the pressure at 17 pounds (8 kilos) in the filter access and then another regulating valve before each allotment guarantees a 7-pound (3-kilo) pressure available for any irrigation need at the farm.

A IRRIGAÇÃO PERFEITA PARA CRESCER Uso produtivo da água

A Casa de Piedra é uma área de irrigação de primeira qualidade somente comparável com as mais avançadas do mundo. Além de atender os padrões exigentes de qualidade para a produção, protege, ao máximo, a maior parte do nosso recurso mais precioso: a água. O primeiro valor que se destaca na Casa de Piedra é a existência concreta de um sistema de irrigação pressurizada em cada fazenda. Isso é uma vantagem única e significativa. O aproveitamento do recurso hídrico é de 100%. Toda a água circula pelos encanamentos sem gerar a perda de qualquer gota. Aqueles que começarem um projeto, somente deverão conectar-se à rede de maneira simples e quase sem custo.

Uma estação moderna de bombeamento extrai água da represa. É entregue um sistema de válvulas com a pressão ideal, para qualquer sistema de irrigação por gotejamento, que no máximo pode ser otimizado com uma pequena bomba caseira.

As obras, realizadas na íntegra pelo governo provincial, foram feitas sob o assessoramento, a direção e posterior monitoramento de espertos israelenses. A utilização da água é absolutamente racional.

É retirada da represa através de um cano que a transporta até o equipamento na chácara, onde será aplicada por gotejamento em cada um dos cultivos. Portanto, nunca existe perda.

O sistema d'água para irrigação tem diferentes válvulas de controles de pressão. A primeira mantém a pressão em 8 kg na entrada de filtrado, e depois, existe outra válvula reguladora, diante cada lote, que garante três quilos de pressão para todas as necessidades de irrigação.
