Drip irrigation distributes water evenly and at low pressure. It consists of drip lines made of plastic material, which are positioned close to the root system and irrigate the crop with volumes of water distributed over a longer period of time than traditional irrigation.
Although it may appear to be a technique that requires more water, it is quite the opposite: drip irrigation allows significant savings and greater distribution efficiency than traditional sprinkler systems.
The introduction of new materials, advanced filtering systems and automation of irrigation processes have made the adoption of sub-irrigation the best solution to optimize the quality and quantity of agricultural productions, At the same time reducing water and energy consumption. The rising cost of labour adds to the urgency of adopting this technique.
Sprinkling, or rain irrigation, is the most traditional method of irrigation.
As the word suggests, this type of irrigation involves the distribution of water through an sprinkler. The working pressure creates a thick drizzle which settles on the crop.
There are low and high pressure systems.
Frost-free watering is an optimal procedure to protect plants from spring frosts.
Spring is an extremely delicate time for crops, it is in the flowering period that the probability of suffering serious damage, and therefore significant economic losses, is very high.
Micro-sprinkling is a precision irrigation technique increasingly used in agriculture.
This practice allows a considerable energy saving as systems work at low pressure, guaranteeing high homogeneity of water distribution.
In the micro-sprinkler irrigation system, it is used for orchards and greenhouse crops.
