Types of Driplines

Driplines or emitters come in different emitter hole distributions.

  • 15 cm spacing
  • 20 cm spacing
  • 30 cm spacing

Some emitters contain single while others have double emitter holes.

The rule of thumb for emitter application is the water requirement and type of plant to irrigate. Large crops or trees may require double emitters to attain sufficient flow rates to make it sufficient.

How to Integrate Drip Irrigation with Fertilizer injectors

Fertilizer injectors are tubes or devices for suctioning soluble fertilizer into drip irrigation systems for precise delivery into plant zones.

Applying fertilizers through a drip irrigation system saves on cost, improves efficiency, and facilitates faster uptake.

Fertilizer injectors are integrated into mainline pipes to suction fertilizer and mix with irrigation water before it is distributed to various farm zones.

4 Factors to Consider When Choosing Drip Irrigation Types

  • Crop Specification – The type of plant you choose to grow should be compatible with the irrigation system. It also helps to prepare and determine how many driplines to use per bed.
  • Water Source and Sand Content – the water source enhances the evaluation of the sand content and the ideal type of filters and pipes to use.
  • Land or topography – the surface of the land is key when deciding on irrigation model to use. For drip irrigation, the land should be flat.
  • Farm Size – As per the size of the farm, you can divide your farm to 2, 3 or 4 line beds.

  2. Soil fertility is safeguarded as there is no chance of surface run-offs in the system.
  3. Design for drip irrigation promotes the ability to control irrigation. You have control over water application rates and can stop irrigation on rainy days.
  4. Versatile high-value plants such as onions and capsicum thrive well in an environment free of fungal diseases.
