Drip Irrigation Meets Drivable Grass
Drivable Grass® has originally been designed with the intention to have commonly used spray irrigation systems installed underneath the product, including fitting sprinkler heads through cut voids of the mat or spraying from outside the installation. The conventional overspray irrigation system has been used successfully with Drivable Grass® for many years. Soil Retention, manufacturer ...

Water reuse through subsurface drip irrigation systems
Water reuse in Hawaii has been primarily relegated to agricultural irrigation and irrigation of golf courses and other large landscaped areas. The continuing effort to conserve and preserve potable water resources emphasizes using alternative water sources for irrigation. Agriculture, golf courses, highways, parks, playgrounds and cemeteries are among the heaviest users of irrigation water due to ...

Subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) on turfgrass: A university experience
ABSTRACT The practice of placing tubing and drip emitters beneath the soil surface to irrigate crops continues to gain acceptance in agriculture, particularly in the production of annual crops. 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 ...

Potential water savings associated with agricultural water efficiency improvements: a case study of California, USA
This study analyzes the potential for water savings from irrigation efficiency improvements in California, USA. We model water savings associated with three efficiency scenarios in wet, average and dry water years. The ‘efficient irrigation technology’ scenario shifts a fraction of the crops from flood irrigation to sprinkler and drip systems; the ‘improved irrigation scheduling’ scenario uses ...

Corn Irrigation System
From Seed to Harvest: The Role of Corn Irrigation System Today we’re going to dive deep into the world of agriculture, focusing specifically on corn irrigation system. From the moment a corn seed is planted to the time it’s ready for harvest, irrigation plays a vital role. This process ensures that the crops get the right amount of water at the right time, which can significantly ...

Irrigated Corn: A Game-Changer for Small-Scale Farmers
Irrigated corn has been a game-changer for small-scale farmers worldwide, and it’s no surprise why. The ability to consistently grow healthy, high-yield crops has become increasingly important as global food demand continues to rise. With irrigation techniques allowing farmers to provide their crops with consistent and carefully measured amounts of water and nutrients, it’s no wonder ...

Assessment of different irrigation systems in Albaji Plain
The objective of this research was to compare different irrigation methods based on a parametric evaluation system in an area of 16,350 ha in the Albaji Plain of the Khuzestan Province, in the southwest of Iran. The soil properties of the study area such as texture, depth, electrical conductivity, drainage, calcium carbonate content and slope were derived from a semi-detailed soil study carried ...

Reuse of Dairy Lagoon Wastewater Through SDI in Forage Crops
Abstract California has become the leading dairy products producing state in the USA. This has resulted in farms commonly milking several thousand cows per day. The care and feeding of the animals has produced large waste streams commonly collected and stored in lagoons. Environmentally safe handling and reuse of the lagooned wastewater is the objective of this study. A system of Subsurface Drip ...

Lg Sonic Ultrasonic Algae and biofilm control for irrigation case study
Water used for irrigation can contain high levels of nutrients, some of these nutrients are beneficial for the plants watered, but can also lead to extensive algal growth. Algae in irrigation tanks can clog the irrigation system and can also be spread over the irrigated area. In addition, some types of fungus, also present in these waters, can be harmful for the plants grown. Therefore the ...

The Importance Pressure Management on Agricultural Irrigation Applications
Irrigation systems world wide are dependent on sound pressure management techniques which are normally incorporated at the design phase of the project. This holds true whether you are designing agricultural irrigation systems incorporating drip, micro spray, sprinkler or pivot systems and has similar ramifications for turf irrigation or even golf course irrigation systems. Automatic Control ...

LG Sound, controlling algae in irrigation reservoirs
Algae growth in irrigation water can cause a serious problem. Algae in irrigation tanks can clog the entire irrigation system, such as the pumps, filters, drip-installation and sprinkler nozzles. Besides that the algae and their by-products can also be spread over the irrigated area. In addition, some types of fungi, also present in these waters, can be harmful for the plants grown. Typical ...
