Detailed Drip irrigation - Megha Agrotech Description:
Drip irrigation is today's need because Water is nature's gift to mankind and is not unlimited and free forever. World water resources are fast diminishing. The one and only answer to this problem is Drip Irrigation Systems.
After detailed study of inter-relationship among soil, water, crop, land terrain and related agro climatic conditions, Meghas design a suitable and economically viable system to deliver a measured quantity of water at the root zone of each plant at regular intervals. This is to ensure that the plants do not suffer from stress or strain of less and over watering. The system installed at the farmer’s field is commissioned and training imparted to the farmer, followed by regular after sales services.
Benefits of Drip Irrigation Systems
- Has recorded increase in yield up to 230%.
- Saves water up to 70% compare to flood irrigation. More land can be irrigated with the water thus saved.
- Crop grows consistently, healthier and matures fast.
- Early maturity results in higher and faster returns on investment.
- Fertilizer use efficiency increases by 30%.
- Cost of fertilizers, inter-culturing and labour use gets reduced.
- Fertilizer and Chemical Treatment can be given through Micro Irrigation System itself.
- Undulating terrains, Saline, Water logged, Sandy & Hilly lands can also be brought under productive cultivation.
Drip irrigation system delivers water to the crop using a network of mainlines, sub-mains and lateral lines with emission points spaced along their lengths. Each dripper/emitter, orifice supplies a measured, precisely controlled uniform application of water, nutrients, and other required growth substances directly into the root zone of the plant.
Water and nutrients enter the soil from the emitters, moving into the root zone of the plants through the combined forces of gravity and capillary. In this way, the plant’s withdrawal of moisture and nutrients are replenished almost immediately, ensuring that the plant never suffers from water stress, thus enhancing quality, its ability to achieve optimum growth and high yield
General information on saving water using drip irrigation system:
Water, essential for human life, health and economic prosperity, is becoming an increasingly scarce resource. Water use is raising double the rate of global population growth owing to urbanization, more water intensive agricultural products, growing industrialization of emerging markets and the impact of climate change. Supply of fresh water is relatively static.
Agriculture utilizes almost 70% of world's fresh water usage. Drip Irrigation Technology is essential to conserve agricultural water and improve agricultural productivity.
