Revolutionizing flow control with a fully mechanical valve that automates flood irrigation — no electricity, no batteries, no guesswork.
“AK Farming is on a mission to automate the backbone of India — agriculture — by developing affordable, power-free, smart irrigation systems for every farmer.”
The real problem
In today's modern era, most farmers of India are doing irrigation the old way — despite rain-pipe sprinklers and drip systems being available.
Unattended beds flood, wasting water and damaging crops.
Manual shifting of water from bed to bed eats into every day.
Someone has to stand at the field, day or night, to move the water.
Our solution
A smart mechanical device that works without electricity or batteries. Once set, it automatically diverts water from one outlet to the next — making irrigation fully automatic, low-maintenance, and farmer-friendly.
Install 5–10 Timer Valves in front of each irrigation bed.
Set the watering time for each bed.
As soon as water reaches the valve, the timer starts.
Once time is up, the valve automatically diverts water to the next bed.
Tap / hover for mechanism
One inlet, two outlets, positioned at 90°. A curved mechanism connected to a spring and timer controls the flow.
Technology & innovation
The Timer Valve uses a patented 3-way valve system — one inlet, two outlets set at 90°. A curved mechanism linked to a spring and timer controls water flow: the valve locks the curve until the timer completes, then releases it, sliding the curve forward to redirect water to the next outlet.
The impact — 10 acre farm, 5 cycles/season
Time per season
383.5 hours saved every season
Annual cost (incl. shifting labour)
≈ ₹8,333 saved every year
Water saved every cycle
15–25%
No more overflow — overflow that once destroyed crops is now prevented at the source.
