Drip Irrigation Achieves Optimal Results
Drip can truly help you grow more with less. With drip irrigation, driplines are installed in the field or orchard, either on-surface or subsurface. Drippers are spaced along the dripline at a certain spacing. This spacing is determined by the requirements of the crop, plant spacing, and the width and depth-wetting ratio determined by the soil’s physical traits. Tailormade spacings are possible to make the system suitable to the conditions. The dripper is selected with a specific flow rate suited to the crop and conditions. Each dripper delivers water and nutrients to the root zone of each plant in the orchard or field.
Given its high level of efficiency, drip irrigation is often seen as a near-magical irrigation solution. The installation of drip irrigation comes with expectations of skyrocketing yields with minimal water use. These are, of course, not empty expectations, but are dependent on suitable water availability, the selection of the drip irrigation system best suited for your circumstances, correct installation, smart scheduling, and faithful maintenance. To make the correct decisions regarding dripper type, flow rate, spacing and other system requirements, we need enough information to base these decisions on. For this, we must gain knowledge regarding the crop’s water and nutrient requirements, the nature of the root system as well as the sensitivity of plant-to-root diseases and poor water quality. Knowledge about the soil must include soil type, soil chemical and physical composition, relative infiltration rate, and the width-to-depth wetting ratio of the soil.
