Eggplant- Saudi Arabia - Case Study
Eggplants in Saudi Arabia are usually planted in sandy soils inside a greenhouse with temperatures rising upt to 50°C. 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 ...

Irrigating with reclaimed water through permanent subsurface drip irrigation systems
ABSTRACT In Hawaii, reclaimed water has been used in agricultural irrigation and the irrigation of golf courses and other large landscaped areas. However, the Hawaii Department of Health's new "Guidelines for the Treatment and Use of Reclaimed Water" published in November 1993, limits uses of reclaimed water through overhead sprinkler irrigation systems. The subsurface drip irrigation concept ...

Design of drip irrigation lateral for optimum capital and operating cost
The drip irrigation system cost can be reduced effectively by using optimal design methods and decreasing the system pressure. In this paper, a two-stage optimum drip irrigation lateral design model is developed based on a new uniformity formula that includes hydraulic variation, emitter manufacture’s variation, and field roughness variation. The non-linear objective function minimizes the ...

Expanding the applications of micro irrigation `Drip` treatment and disposal systems in Delaware
Abstract An 18–month field evaluation of four micro–irrigation "drip" treatment and disposal systems was conducted to determine if reducing the separation distance between the bottom of the drip–line and the seasonal high water table (limiting condition) could be reduced from 18 inches to 12 inches. In this study three systems did not have advanced treatment while the remaining ...
