DRIP IRRIGATION








In Drip Irrigation, the plant foliage remains dry .
This prevents the diseases and leaf burns that
are some times evident in sprinkler Irrigation.
In Drip Irrigation, the area between wetted strips
is kept dry. This facilitates the movement of
machinery and farm implements when irrigation
is in progress.
Drip Irrigation is well suited to all soils and also
for heavy soils with low infiltration rate or soils
that from surface crusts when sprinkled.
Drip Irrigation requires no special land
preparation.
DRIP IRRIGATION






Drip Irrigation can not be used for frost
protection or for cooling during period of hot
weather like sprinkler irrigation.
Like sprinkler irrigation, Drip Irrigation can not
be used or suitable for supplemental irrigation of
large areas.
In dry , windy regions, Drip Irrigation of young
tree plants in “light” soils encourages soil
erosion due to the very limited wetted area.
Strong winds also presents problems of
anchorage.

  • 7. DRIP IRRIGATION     In Drip Irrigation, the plant foliage remains dry . This prevents the diseases and leaf burns that are some times evident in sprinkler Irrigation. In Drip Irrigation, the area between wetted strips is kept dry. This facilitates the movement of machinery and farm implements when irrigation is in progress. Drip Irrigation is well suited to all soils and also for heavy soils with low infiltration rate or soils that from surface crusts when sprinkled. Drip Irrigation requires no special land preparation.
  • 8. DRIP IRRIGATION    Drip Irrigation can not be used for frost protection or for cooling during period of hot weather like sprinkler irrigation. Like sprinkler irrigation, Drip Irrigation can not be used or suitable for supplemental irrigation of large areas. In dry , windy regions, Drip Irrigation of young tree plants in “light” soils encourages soil erosion due to the very limited wetted area. Strong winds also presents problems of anchorage.
