Along with the appointment of a Thai distributor we will also be constructing a 30 meter x 10 meter greenhouse near Rayong; this greenhouse will be used to trial the products further so that the information can be passed onto potential clients. As there is a global recession at the moment we have decided to make use of the land (23,000 sq meters) in Koh Samui that myself and a group of investors bought in 2004. This will in time be developed into a self sustainable site utilising the AutoPot technology, the proposal for the site can be seen at www.autopot-properties.com. However in the meantime and until the global market picks up we have decided to make use of the land by turning it into a sweet coconut farm. As sweet coconut is very much sought after on the Koh Samui we have decided it makes sense to plant them on the island.
Over the next 5-7 years the site will therefore supply the island with as much sweet coconut that we can grow. We will also be making full use of the AutoPot technology as we will be irrigating each of the 600 coconut trees with its own AQUAbox. This site will also be used as a show site for the AutoPot technology and the huge advantages in particular the AQUAbox can offer. The site should be complete by the end of October 2009. Photos will be added to the website once the sweet coconut trees are planted. |
