The present invention relates to a container with a side wall of plastic encloses a container volume. Horizontally oriented grooves spaced vertically apart from one another are formed in the side wall, and the grooves include first grooves for stiffening the side wall. The first grooves have a first groove depth and are configured such that a projection protruding into the enclosed container volume is formed in the inner surface of the side wall. The grooves also include second grooves having a second groove depth. The first groove depth is greater than the second groove depth. The first and second grooves are arranged such that at least one second groove is in each case arranged in the vertical direction between two first grooves. The subvolumes enclosed by two horizontal planes, which are defined by two adjacent grooves, and the side wall are in each case identical.

The present invention relates to a system for delivering an agricultural formulation, having a container () for holding the agricultural formulation, the container () having a removal opening (), a delivery unit (), securely fastened in or to the container (), for delivering the agricultural formulation located in the container () through the removal opening (). The system also comprises a drive unit which, in order to drive the delivery unit (), separately from the delivery unit (), is coupled detachably to the delivery unit (), wherein the drive unit has a hydraulic unit (), which comprises a cylinder chamber (), a piston () that is movable back and forth in the cylinder chamber (), and an outlet opening () for a hydraulic fluid, and has a hydraulic line () which is coupled to the outlet opening () and able to be coupled to the delivery unit (). In the system according to the invention, the hydraulic fluid is water or rapidly biodegradable. Furthermore, the hydraulic unit has a further cylinder chamber for driving the piston by means of a further hydraulic fluid. The invention also relates to a method for delivering an agricultural formulation.
