IRRIGATION FOR AGRICULTURE

Drip irrigation is a system where water is pumped from the ground or surface, filtered, amended with nutrients and/or water treatment chemicals, and then delivered directly to the crop root zone through a network of pipelines into different types of emission devices depending on the crop to be watered. Micro-irrigation has typically been used for fruit, nuts and vegetables. it has also been used successfully with field crops such as alfalfa, corn and soybeans too.Drip emitter tubing provides 90% watering efficiency, right at the root zone. Protects the emitter from root intrusion, creating a long-lasting, low maintenance sub-surface drip irrigation system for use in organic gardens or shrub and groundcover areas.
