Field Irrigation Systems are essential in agriculture since they help provide water to plants where rain may be erratic or unavailable. Given the ever-rising population around the globe, food production is on the rise, and thus, there is a need to maximize agricultural production. Therefore, contemporary field irrigation systems have developed as an all-important tool to facilitate crop growth, ...
Water plays a critical role in agriculture, serving as the lifeblood for crops and soil, and is essential for growing food. However, natural rainfall is often unpredictable, insufficient, or unevenly distributed across regions, making irrigation systems a vital component of modern farming. With effective irrigation, many farmers would be able to produce enough crops to meet both local and global ...
Introduction: The Vital Role of Irrigation Water Pumps in Agriculture In the world of agriculture, water is the lifeblood that nurtures crops and sustains our food supply. As global climate patterns shift and water resources become increasingly precious, efficient irrigation has never been more crucial. At the heart of any effective irrigation system lie irrigation water pumps, the unsung heroes ...
But in the modern world, water conservation and efficiency are equally significant considerations. This is where Subsurface Drip Irrigation (SDI) becomes a household name for the green-thumbed community. However, the idea of installing subsurface drip system can seem daunting to beginners. Fear not, for we are here to demystify ...
One of the least discussed aspects of the climate emergency is the water crisis, but as the realities of water stress and scarcity around the world really start to bite, there can be no doubt that it will soon become a hot topic of conversation, hitting headlines with increasing regularity as time goes on. Because water underpins every aspect of society in the 21st century, it is immediately ...
However, the use of the subsurface drip method to irrigate turfgrass has only begun to be explored. This paper focuses on the experiences gained at California State University, Fresno (CSUF) in adopting subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) technology to large turf areas as compared to more conventional sprinkler ...
It no longer requires letting the field dry or turning the system off during special or planned activities. The problem of burying drip irrigation lines is not new. ...
In recent years, subsurface drip irrigation systems have gained greater acceptance in landscape and commercial turf applications. ...

Getting to Know Cannabis Farming Israel’s agricultural industry is ripening for the beginning of medical cannabis export, with the expected passage of medical export legislation by the end of the year. The timing is particularly fruitful for growers who are interested in succeeding in a new venture that is still in its infancy. The rewards are also high: Israel’s Health and Finance ...
Plastic-Puglia continues to invest in research and development of new products for irrigation. The company is moving into areas where the technology and water resources are scarce or mismanaged. ...
The conventional overspray irrigation system has been used successfully with Drivable Grass® for many years. Soil Retention, manufacturer of Drivable Grass®, recently worked together with a leader in drip irrigation systems, Netafim USA, to prove alternatives in efforts to conserve water. ...
This eliminates the need for insecticides to protect against apple moths. The implementation of a drip micro-irrigation system in their orchards, and the use of closed loop water circuits, which filter and recycle the water for its reuse. ...
To maximise the benefits that you receive from a drip irrigation system, it is important to use a professional drip irrigation design service. ...
With the utilization of ecotube, the harvest could be done two weeks earlier and the biomass was 48% higher in comparison to conventional drip irrigation systems. All while saving aproximately 90% water. Most of it due to no evaporization. In the picture, the plants on the left have been watered with drip ...
More progressive is principle of non-stop water supply of plants and soil in conformity to their water consumption. Drip irrigation and impulse sprinkling are based on this principle. The main advantage of drip irrigation is establishment of optimal water and nutritive regime directly in the plant root system. ...
They then added in their own time and financial resources to develop micro-enterprises, like selling excess water to fellow community members and providing drip irrigation devices to farmers. Combined with earnings from increased crop outputs, the community could afford to maintain the solar system and invest in other areas, such as biogas. ...
Despite access to this enormous irrigation system, farmers in the Indus Basin are increasingly using "tubewells" to get the water they need. ...
Nothing spells the death of a subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) system taster than root intrusion. With more growers placing drip irrigation lines below the soil surface, the need for a better understanding of how to keep roots out of drip emitters has also become more important. Work done at The ...
