Drip irrigation, is an irrigation method that saves water and fertilizer by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either onto the soil surface or directly onto the root zone, through a network of valves, pipes, tubing, and emitters. This type of irrigation is also known as micro irrigation, trickle irrigation or localized irrigation. This irrigation method is very helpful to cut do...

Drip Irrigation is a more economical and conservative way to irrigate just about anything. Most irrigation systems work on the basis of saturation. This means that you saturate a large area for short periods of time. The soil gets wet, which takes water down to the roots. However, the soil in between, in front of, and behind the plants also becomes saturated. This doesn't help provide more water t...

Irrigation - "the science of artificial application of water to the land or soil." The first signs of irrigation, and therefore agriculture, appeared about 10,000 years ago, and the infancy of trickle drip irrigation about 6000 BC. Before this, humans were Hunter Gatherers, collecting their food from what they would find around them. Often, these people were nomadic, following the game and the pla...

Today we talk about water management. Efficient water management is one of the most important prerequisites to cultivate a healthy vegetable garden. If it is an area where the water table is low and rains are not very frequent, it is all the more important to optimize water usage. This vegetable gardening guide will help you learn various ways of water management and choose what best suits your re...

At present, China's water resources are scarce, and agricultural water waste is very serious traditional flood irrigation methods made agricultural water conservation, the water consumption accounts for over 70% of the total water consumption in China and only 30% ~ 40%, and the effective utilization of the water is only half of the developed countries, per cubic meter of water only 0.85 kg of gra...

Today, I would like to introduce the Chinadrip’s self-cleaning pressure compensated dripper, which is made of 100% new material with special additives. It is corrosion-resistant, aging-resistant and anti-UV.Equipped with a new generation labyrinth wide water flow channel, the dripper can do continuously self-flushing.The water inlet is equipped with a filter grille, which contributes to improve th...

What are the widely acclaimed advantages of drip irrigation technology? Let's discuss today, Firstly, save water and fertilizer. Water and fertilizer are directly delivered to the root zone, greatly improving the utilization rate of water and fertilizer utilization. Secondly, reduce weed and pest infestation.Since drip irrigation only moistens the soil or substrate near the roots of the crop, the ...

It is corrosion-resistant, aging-resistant and anti-UV. Equipped with a new generation labyrinth wide water flow channel, the dripper can do continuously self-flushing. The water inlet is eq...

Take a minute to quickly know about the white outside and black inside PE pipes! Have you found that many blueberry growers use white PE pipe to irrigate in Yunnan Province of China? Actually, what they use is white outside and black inside pipe. So what are the benefits of using such a PE pipe? On the one hand, the advantage of the white outer layer is that it can reflect sunlight, and it absorbs...

Why drip arrow stakes in substrate-grown blueberry irrigation? First, blueberry is sensitive to drought and waterlogging. Arrow stakes deliver water directly to the roots, ensuring proper moisture. Second, it reduces pests and diseases by keeping water off the leaves. Third, arrow stakes are easy to move to adjust irrigation area according to plants' growth stages. Follow Chinadrip to discover mor...

Why not all drip arrows from same dripper placed in one pot? Because others arrows can still supply water if that dripper clogged. If all arrows from one dripper are in the same pot and it clogs, the blueberry plant could die from lack of water. Follow Chinadrip to discover more about irrigation.

Why do we need to install air valves in irrigation systems? Imagine that when the pump is turned on, there is a pipe that carries water to the field. The water starts to flow through the pipe, but at a high point, air accumulates, creating a high pressure point. The air cannot be discharged from the pipe at this point, which will lead to the reduction of the cross-sectional area of the water flow ...

Why is the water flow un uniformity in drip tape? Different specifications have different maximum lateral lengths. Higher flow rates, closer emitter spacing, and longer lengths increase pressure loss, causing low pressure and un uniformity flow at the end of drip line. So it's important to know the maximum laying length when choosing drip tape. Our new 0.35-liter low-flow drip tape can be laid up ...

How to address uneven water flow in drip tape on steep slopes? Use pressure-compensating drip tape, which maintains a uniform flow rate across varying pressures. This ensures that crops on both high slopes and low areas receive equal water and nutrients, preventing uneven growth. The built-in elastic diaphragm in the dripper adjusts the outlet size based on water pressure to stabilize flow. Follow...
