I'm trying to make a biopore hole to expand the rainwater infiltration vertically.
Biopori itself means soil pores that are actually formed naturally due to the activities of soil animals that make houses and escape routes and food routes. Biopori is a sign the soil is healthy.
But getting here, especially in urban areas, the ground is covered with cement so that rainwater does not seep into the ground, but instead flows into ditches, rivers, and ends up in the sea.
Making biopori holes (artificial) allows us to store groundwater so that groundwater reserves around the house are maintained. So that it can help the availability of water in the dry season.
In addition, biopori holes can be made as a place for composting organic waste. Soil animals can get their food again easily and we can harvest organic fertilizer from there.
Pleasant! That's the reason I want to make a biopore hole
In theory, the biopore hole should be 80-100 cm deep. But in practice, it turns out that 80 cm is enough because it is blocked by root stones
Cost breakdown:
1 rod of paralon pipe with a diameter of 4 inches and a length of 400 cm, divided by 80 cm, means 5 pipes for biopori.
So, for 5 infiltration holes the total cost is:
Pipe 1 bar 130,000
Cover 2600 x 5 13,000
Wood drill bit set 22,000
Ground drill 99,000 (can be used in many times)
Electric drill - (pre-owned)
