    Technical Seminar ON: Drip Irrigation

    Uploaded by

    Workless 0207
    This document provides information about a technical seminar on drip irrigation, including: 1) Drip irrigation, also known as trickle irrigation or micro irrigation, involves delivering water directly to the soil near the roots of plants through small outlets called emitters or drippers. 2) The components of a drip irrigation system include a water source, pumping system, distribution system, drip tape or tube with emitters, injectors, and a filtration system. 3) Drip irrigation conserves water by reducing evaporation and runoff compared to other irrigation methods, while improving crop yields through more precise water delivery directly to plant roots.

    INTRODUCTION

     Also known as trickle irrigation or micro irrigation


     To apply sufficient moisture to the root of the crops- prevent
    water stress.
     A major difference between drip system and most other
    systems is that the balance between crop evapotranspiration
    and applied water.
    WHAT IS DRIP IRRIGATION ?

     In this system, water is delivered directly to the soil near the


    roots of the plant Through a special outlet device called an
    emitter or dripper.
     Water is supply drip by drip at very slow rate 2-10 lit/hr.
     The water applied near the root zone spread laterally as well as
    vertically due to Capillary action in the soil.
    NEED OF DRIP IRRIGATION
    • To use water efficiently.
    • No water to runoff or evaporation.
    • It reduces water contact with crop leaves, stems, and fruits.
    • Agricultural chemicals can be applied more efficiently.
    DRIP IRRIGATION IS USEFUL FOR
    CROPS…

     FRUIT CROPS :
    Banana,pomegranate,Grapes,Citrus,pineapple,watermelon,ma
    ngo, etc.

     VEGETABLE CROPS :
    Cabbage,Cauliflower,,Potato,,Chillis,Radish,Brinjal,,,
    Capsicum, Hindi, Beans, Baby corn,Carrots,Cucumber, Ash
    gourd, Gherkins.etc.

     COMMERCIAL CROP :
    Cotton,.
    MAIN COMPONENTS OF DRIP IRRIGATION

     Water Source
     Pumping system
     Distribution system
     Drip tape (drip tube)
     Injectors
     Filtration system
    DRIP IRRIGATION :
    WATER SOURCE

     Common water sources for drip irrigation are surface water,


    groundwater, and potable water .
     Use the water source that will provide the largest amount of
    water of greatest quality and lowest cost.
    PUMPING SYSTEM

     The role of the pumping system is to move water from the


    water source to the field through the distribution system.
     Pumping systems may be classified as electric powered
    systems, gas/diesel powered systems, and gravity systems.
    DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

     The role of the distribution system is to convey the water from


    the source to the field.
     Distribution systems may be above ground or underground .
     Pipes are most commonly made of PVC or polyethylene
    plastics.
     Aluminum pipes are also available, but are more difficult to
    customize, cut, and repair.
    DRIP TAPE

     The drip-irrigation system delivers water to each plant through


    a thin polyethylene tape (or tube) with regularly spaced small
    holes.
     In the field, drip-irrigation tape should be installed with
    emitters upward (looking up) to prevent clogging.
    INJECTORS

     Injectorsallow the introduction of fertilizer, chemicals and


    maintenance products into the irrigation system.
     The most common injectors used with small drip-irrigation
    systems are the Ventura (or Maze) injector and the Positron.
     Because Ventura injectors involve no moving parts and are less
    expensive, they are commonly used on small farms.
    FILTERATION SYSTEM
     The filtration system removes "large"
    solid particles in suspension in the
    water.
     Usage of type of filter is based on the
    type of particles in the water.
     Rapid clogging may occur when no
    filter is used .
     A drip-irrigation system should never
    be operated without a filter even if
    the filter requires clogged drip- tape
    emitters, often resulting in poor
    uniformity and sometimes in crop
    loss
    ADAVANTAGES OF DRIP IRRIGATION
     Maximum use of available water.
     No water being available to weeds.
     Maximum crop yield.
     High efficiency in the use of fertilizers.
     Low labor and relatively low operation cost.
     No soil erosion.
     No runoff of fertilizers into ground water.
     Less evaporation losses of water as compared to surface
    irrigation.
     Improves seed germination.
    DISADVANTAGES OF DRIP IRRIGATION
     The installation process needs time.
     Sun heat affects tubes, sometimes they get broken for excessive
    heat production.
     Plastic tubes affect soils fertility.
     Tubes get clogged sometimes.
     If Drip Irrigation is not installed properly, then it is a waste of
    time and water.
    CONCLUSION

    Drip irrigation is a latest sub-surface method of irrigating water with higher


    water demands in arid region. It may not be applicable to all farms. Yet, when
    properly designed, installed and managed, drip irrigation may achieve water
    conservation by reducing evaporation and deep drainage when compared to
    other types of irrigation such as flood or overhead sprinklers since water can
    be more precisely applied to the plant roots. In addition, drip can eliminate
    many diseases that are spread through water contact with the foliage.
