Agriculture in India is often a delicate balance between effort, cost, and efficiency. Small farmers, in particular, constantly seek solutions that maximize yield while minimizing resource use. Vilas Mohite, a small cultivator from Village Soholi, District Sangli, Maharashtra, India (Phone no +91 7057967831 experienced this challenge first hand and found a solution that transformed his farming practice.
From Ordinary Rain Pipe / Rain Hose to Laser Spray
Vilas Mohite cultivates leafy vegetables in two plots of 15 guntha (1500 m2) each. To irrigate his first plot, he purchased a standard Rain Pipe / Rain Hose from the market. For covering the 15 guntha plot, he required five rolls.
When Vilas expanded drip irrigation to the second 15 guntha plot, he decided to explore other options. This time, he came across the Laser Spray. Curious about the technology, he asked the shopkeeper how many rolls he would need. To his surprise, the shopkeeper said that only two rolls of Laser Spray Rain Pipe / Rain Hose were sufficient to irrigate his 15 guntha plot.
Initially skeptical, Vilas decided to give it a try. He purchased and installed the two rolls. What he found exceeded his expectations. Not only did the Laser Spray Rain Pipe / Rain Hose cover the entire area, but it also irrigated the plot more uniformly, ensuring that every plant received consistent moisture. Vilas joyfully exclaimed, “Laser Spray is a boon for my family.”
How Can Two Rolls of Laser Spray Replace Five Rolls of Ordinary Rain Pipe / Rain Hose?
The answer lies in technological excellence. Laser Spray is designed to cover a wider area per roll than most ordinary Rain Pipes or hoses. Because of its superior spray pattern and high coverage, the tubes can be placed at longer intervals across the field. In simple terms, fewer rolls can irrigate the same area as multiple rolls of an ordinary Rain Pipe / Rain Hose. So, you need less quantity of the spray tube. For 1 acre of land, only 600 mtr of Laser Spray 32mm / 40 mm is sufficient. This is explained more clearly by the images below:

Saving in other components of the Irrigation system
The magic of Laser Spay does not end in saving of the Spray Tubes! There is more to it. It saves other components of the irrigation system as well.
Laser Spray can be laid out over longer distances than ordinaryRain Pipes / Rain Hoses. It has a higher Maximum Permissible Length, meaning each spray tube can irrigate uniformly over a longer stretch without loss of water discharge volume beyond standard acceptable range. Please see the image above. This reduces the quantity of Main Line Sub-Main Lines and fittings. The diagrams below illustrate a spray irrigation system for 1 hectare with Laser Spray and Ordinary Rain Pipe / Rain Hose. You can see that the system with Laser Spray has lesser quantity of Main Pipe, Sub Main Pipe and fittings like Valves and End Caps apart from the spray pipes.
Economic of Laser Spray
While it’s true that Laser Spray costs more per roll (or per meter) than ordinary Rain Pipes / Rain Hoses, the total cost of irrigation system often comes out lower as explained above due to:
- Requirement of less quantity of spray pipes
- Reduced Main / Sub-Main Lines
- Requirement of lesser quantity of fittings
Other advantages of Laser Spray:
-
- Laser Spray irrigates the filed more uniformly than standard Rain Pipes / Rain hoses as experienced by Vilas Mohite. This is because of deploying path breaking ‘Laser-Punched Drip’ Technology innovated by Driptech.
-
- The water droplets from the Laser Spray jets are much finer than those of the standard Rain Pipes / Rain Hoses. This is again due to use of ‘Laser-Punched Drip’ Technology. Finer droplets generally do not harm the delicate fruits and flowers.
-
- Laser Spray is made High Quality Virgin Plastic. It does not break or crack easily under pressure. It has long life as being experienced by the farmers. Please see this video on testimonials of the farmers on longevity of Laser Spray:
Conclusion
Vilas Mohite has experienced what thousands of farmers in India, Africa and south east Asia are experiencing. Laser Spray stands out from the standard Rain Pipes / Rain Hoses in terms Economics, Performance as well as Longevity.
Vilas’ remark, “Laser Spray is a boon for my family” is the feeling of many farmers who have experienced the magic Laser Spray! To read other such stories, please click of the link below:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is Laser Spray?
Laser Spray is an advanced irrigation system that uses laser-punched technology to distribute water uniformly across the field in the form of fine droplets, similar to natural rainfall.
2. How is Laser Spray different from an ordinary rain pipe?
Laser Spray provides wider and longer coverage, uniform water distribution, and finer droplets than the ordinary Rain Pipe / Rain Hose.
3. How can fewer Laser Spray pipes irrigate the same area?
Laser Spray covers a wider area per pipe due to its superior spray pattern, allowing wider spacing between spray pipes and thus, reducing the total number of pipes required.
4. Does Laser Spray provide uniform irrigation?
Yes, Laser Spray ensures uniform water distribution from start to end.
5. Can Laser Spray save water?
Yes, Laser Spray helps in significant water saving compared to the traditional flood irrigation because it distributes water efficiently and avoids wastage.
6. Does Laser Spray reduce overall irrigation cost?
Yes. Even though the cost per pipe may be higher, the total system cost is lower due to:
- Fewer pipes required
- Reduced main and sub-main lines
- Fewer fittings
7. Is Laser Spray suitable for small farmers?
Absolutely. Laser Spray is ideal for small farmers as it is cost-effective, efficient, and easy to install, helping maximize returns on small land holdings.
8. Are Laser Spray water droplets safe for crops?
Yes, the system produces fine droplets that do not damage delicate crops, flowers, or fruits. The droplets are fine due to the use of the new revolutionary ‘Laser-Punched Drip’ technology.
9. Does Laser Spray help in improving crop growth?
Yes, uniform irrigation leads to better plant growth, healthier crops, and improved yield.
10. Is Laser Spray durable?
Yes, it is made from high-quality virgin plastic, making it strong, durable, and long-lasting.
